A Miso Walnut Dressing Recipe

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons of miso
1/3 cup of fresh, raw walnuts
1/4 cup of sesame oil
1 tablespoon of unpasteurized or raw honey
2 1/2 tablespoons of brown rice vinegar

Directions:

Blend all ingredients together in a food processor until smooth. If you like a thinner consistency, add a little water. Serve immediately or after chilling for an hour in the refrigerator.

This Asian-style dressing goes beautifully with pasta, brown rice, quinoa, any steamed vegetables, and even a fresh, crunchy salad. You can find high quality miso at any Asian food market and most health food stores. All Korean markets carry den-jang, a Korean version of miso that works just as well with this recipe.
