Instead of miso, you could try peanut butter or sesame paste. Toss sauce with chilled noodles with julienned cucumber and carrots also. It's then Chinese cold noodle dish.

this was so delicious. i tweaked it a bit though. i used Mirin instead of rice vinegar. I thought the sweetness of the mirin really blended nicely with the miso. i ommited the peanut/grape seed oil, cayenne and yogurt. I didnt have lime on hand, but i bet it would have been great with lime. so basically, minced garlic, grated ginger, toasted sesame oil, mirin, and white miso. I tossed it with Soba noodles. next time ill add some green onion, roasted peanuts, and definitly some fresh lime juice

An excellent and easy vinaigrette that we actually prefer WITHOUT the yogurt (which makes it a bit too heavy). To balance the tang of vinegar and citrus we add a splash of mirin and a squeeze of honey.

shouldn't the recipe say "1 small garlic" rather than 1 small garlic press?
sandy
fast, easy, always have the ingreds. Helps me to keep fresh ginger in freezer and grate as needed

Following others, I did 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1/2 tbsp mirin, and 1/2 tbsp lime juice. Didn't add yogurt and it was delicious.
Meredith
This was too salty for me, until I followed the suggestion of other users and added 2 tbsp Mirin. Now it’s magic! Thanks!

Good over cold red quinoa that had been cooked with sautéed celery and shallots. Added a bit of feta and a couple pinches of salt at the end.

Excellent recipe that lends itself well to modification. I omitted the yogurt and added one tablespoon of Shaoxing wine and one tablespoon of maple syrup. I think two tablespoons of mirin would work just as well. I drizzled the dressing over a hearty grain bowl with poached eggs for a savory breakfast and it was delicious.

A very tart salad dressing. You may want to add sugar or a little orange juice if you aren't an aficionado of sour.

I left out yogurt and it was amazing!
Eric Wiener
They have a subtler taste
Sally
Can omit yogurt. If don't have vinegar, can try using mirin and whatever vinegar/honey available.
Ms Nina G
Substituted 2 tbsp of sesame paste for the yogurt. Added a little water - great.
Samuel
Probably 1 small garlic clove
Elisha
Made it as written and my husband said it was his favorite dressing I have made so far! I also really enjoyed it!
Suj
Less tang but good. Next time I’m using either vinegar or lime juice but not both. And maybe less yogurt.
maggie
i could eat this by the spoonful
MM
Spot on recipe. Did everything to the directions except I am dairy free, so used my vegan mayo in place of the yogurt. Brilliant.
Patsy
Not sure why everyone's hatin' on the yoghurt; i add extra :0) Use this dressing on a green salad with smoked salmon and it's epic.
Nell
Not an experienced cook but remembering Carla Lalli Music’s tahini butter sauce I added butter since I didn’t have yogurt or oil. Not sorry. The whole batch was gone in 5 minutes.

I made it as written and it was, delicious. Great on everything and a great starting point to add other flavors.
Rebecca
Most commentators omitted yogurt.

Delicious. Just made it second time (first time last week) as we are trying to make more "bowls"... Doubled it on second making because one batch barely lasted. You can drizzle this on everything and it is a great dip for carrots. Way better than hummus b'c it has a tang.
Dave
So beautiful that my broccoli didn’t get tossed into our compost pile. It seems others have ideas for bending its flavor, which is why this is such a good sauce.
Theresa Garcia
Delicious!

Make this regularly as written - so delicious!
MegS
Loved this dressing. Added a touch of honey, omitted the yogurt.
NancyJ
I added more miso, ginger and sesame oil than called for. It was a little bland in the ingredient proportions listed
Katie
This is great. I used red miso. It was a little thick, so I added more rice vinegar, grapeseed oil and a little water. Depends on what you’re using the dressing for. Will make again.
