Japanese Salad Dressing →
This authentic Japanese salad dressing comes from Goten of Japan in Sunderland, Massachusetts. Years ago they shared the recipe with the New York Times and had it posted on a wall at the restaurant. I copied it onto my napkin and have been using it ever since. Gingery, savory, subtly sweet-and-sour, if you are a fan of the Japanese salad dressing frequently served with the small crunchy salad before your main entree, this is the real deal! Tanoshime!
