Dressing served with rice noodles, roasted eggplant, and edamame – perfection!

Yes, the exact salad dressing that I was looking for! I can feel it’s gonna be my favorite, I know it when I’m “tasting” it everytime I open the fridge door! Thanks for sharing.

Always a delight to see a fusion of cultural ingredients (in this case, the addition of miso!) in salad. And always up for salads that both taste good and detoxifies ! Thank you for sharing the recipe!

Loved this. In the interest of watching fat and calories only changed it a bit by replacing the 1/4 cup grapeseed oil with an equal amount of water. I’m sure it’s good with the oil, but I sure didn’t miss it. Made it in the Blendtec. My kids were slurping up their salad and asking for seconds. I’d say it’s a keeper. Thanks.

just whipped this up in our vitamix and it’s pretty good…but i think next time we will start with half as much sesame oil and use mirin instead f plain rice vinegar.

Thank you! I’m looking forward to trying this! I had a delicious carrot ginger garlic dressing in NYC several years ago so I’m looking forward to this version with the shallots.

I have been trying to replicate the carrot-ginger dressing of sushi houses for yeeeears and I’m so happy I came across this recipe. It’s great, I was hesitant about the amount of sesame oil but found everything very well balanced. Didn’t have white miso but thought it was just great with the dark soybean paste I used. And god love it with avocado!

I wish I could get past MISO! It reminds me of the first time I ate Fish Soup in a Japanese restaurant and I thought I was going to throw up. It tasted so salty and fishy — like a fish that had begun to spoil. Nori is a definite no-no for my taste buds, too. Please tell me that there is a miso that I might like….

Thank you for the nut-free dressing! As someone who suffers from numerous food allergies, but loves food, I adore how you do not use soy sauce, which contains gluten, and sesame seed oil, instead of peanut.
Well done, and so delicious!

Thank you! For decade(s) I’ve been trying to recreate the Around the Clock dressing, without success. (to the other Nyu commented, dojo’s was the other place that had a good carrot dressing).
