Sesame Dressing (Yields 2 1/2 cups dressing)

⅔ cup Chinkiang vinegar (*Footnote 1)

½ cup plus 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

½ heaping cup unsalted natural peanut butter (*Footnote 2)

⅓ cup agave syrup (or sugar)

¼ cup toasted sesame oil

2 teaspoons ginger powder

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

For each dressing, add all the ingredients into a blender (I used my

Vitamix). Start at low speed and gradually increase to high, until everything is incorporated into a consistent texture. The total blending time for each dressing should be about 20 seconds.

Store the dressings in airtight containers in the fridge for 2 to 3 weeks. I suspect they could stay good longer but you probably won't get a chance to test it out because you'll finish all three bottles in no time.

Notes

Use rice vinegar if you need to create a gluten-free dressing. The flavor profile of the dressing will change and become less pungent, but it will remain tasty.

The consistency of peanut butters varies a lot. If you find your dressing too thin, add 1 to 2 tablespoons more peanut butter.

If you plan to store the dressing for a long time, boil some water and then let it cool down before adding to the dressing. This process will sanitize the water so it stays good for longer.
