[Japanese Recipes] Wafu Japanese Salad Dressing

Happy Boxing Day! Here’s a healthy and delicious 15-minute salad with Japanese wafu dressing to make up for all that festive feasting. The wafu vinaigrette is one of my favourite salad dressing, because it’s not heavy, quick to make (5 minutes!) and of course, delicious. With the ease of making, there is no excuse to skip the greens no matter how busy one is ;)



You can also make turn this into a low-carb meal, but adding one or two toppings (such as tofu, avocado, chicken, crab sticks etc) to make it a complete meal.


Rice Vinegar and shoyu (soy sauce) makes the base of the wafu vinaigrette.



Japanese Wafu Salad Recipe


The sauce keeps in the fridge for about a week. Upon refrigeration, the oil may float up and solidify; simply let it thaw at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before use.

Feel free to substitute with your favourite seasonal salad ingredients, such as corn, hard-boiled egg and carrot for the salad bowl.
