Asian Toasted Sesame Dressing Low Carb and Sugar Free

Описание: I needed some Asian Toasted Sesame Dressing for a recipe that I'll share next week - as it's not something I could find here in Australia, I decided to make my own. I found this recipe on www.kitchenstewardship.com and it worked very well. What I like best about it is making it yourself you know exactly what's in it so I was able to keep it low carb. Most store-bought dressings are full of sugar. Give this one a try.

Ingredients
• 2 Tbs. apple cider vinegar
• 2-3 Tbs. soy sauce
• 1 Tbs. sesame oil (optional) plus extra virgin olive oil to make ½ cup
• 2 tsp. sesame seeds, toasted*
• 2 cloves garlic
• ¼ tsp. ginger

Instructions
• Whisk apple cider vinegar, olive oil, optional sesame oil and soy sauce.
• Whiz the garlic and toasted sesame seeds in a mini-food processor until garlic is in small pieces.
• Combine and enjoy!

*To toast sesame seeds, put them on a dry cookie sheet in the toaster oven and toast on light once or twice until lightly browned and aromatic.  No toaster oven?  You could certainly use a regular oven on low heat – just watch them closely every few minutes to make sure they don’t burn.  I’m thinking you could also put them in a hot, dry pan and stir constantly until browned [the author hadn't tried it but this is how I did it].

Notes: Use the dressing within a couple of days or store in the fridge and try to remember to take it out a half hour before dinner, because the olive oil may solidify when cold. Visit and Like us on Facebook:   / annas-kitchen-1686376324950749
