I love the zesty flavor of this dressing and was on a mission to recreate it. I accidentally stumbled on this dressing in the salad section of Wholefoods which made my life easier. I quickly ran through the ingredients which looked fairly simple so here is my version. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its deliciously over sturdy veggies and accompanies many Asian inspired recipes. We love it with steamed veggies, like asparagus and broccoli, pan fried tofu, simple side salads like cucumber, romaine, carrots or shredded cabbage. Everything gets dropped into a high speed blender\/food processor until you have a smooth consistency. You start by peeling the carrots, a little scrub of the ginger and drop the ingredients in the blender. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a
