NOTES : Rice-wine vinegar, sesame oil, and miso are important ingredients in many aspects of Japanese cuisine, including salad dressings. After much experimentation, Martha Stewart developed this creamy salad dressing, which gets its distinctive sweet flavor from red miso, a medium-bodied soybean paste. The pungent miso also adds vitamins, protein, and nutrients to this healthy, low-fat dressing, which contains just a ¼ teaspoon of sesame oil. Serve drizzled on top of a simple salad of iceberg lettuce and shaved carrots.
