Ginger Soy Vinaigrette

Chef Dawn Ludwig

This flavorful recipe is great served over tofu or chicken, shredded cabbage as an Asian Slaw, salad greens, or as a marinade for baked fish. One of my favorite ways to use it is over soba noodles in an Asian Noodle Salad. Also in our Always Hungry? book page 267
