Japanese Salad Dressing Recipe

If you've ever wondered how to make salad dressing like they do in most Japanese restaurants, the kind that looks like a light applesauce, I think you'll be pleased with this simple recipe.

Miso and ginger are the star ingredients of this dressing - both are excellent for improving digestive tract health.

Regular intake of miso is my preferred way of ensuring ideal vitamin K2 intake, necessary to support optimal skeletal and cardiovascular health.
