I make this dressing almost every week, and I can’t believe I haven’t posted it yet.

This dressing is on the lighter, more vinegar-y side with rice wine vinegar making up the bulk of it. There is a bit of peanut butter, some sambal oelek (chili paste that you can even get at target), and fresh ginger. I like to make it in the food processor, and it only takes a few minutes.

I like this on almost any dressing, but it is perfect on this salad or this salad.

Here’s how to do it…
