How to Make the Best Maple Miso Dressing
This maple miso dressing is a delicious balance of sweet and savory flavors that works beautifully on almost any salad. The combination of white miso, maple syrup, and rice wine vinegar creates a complex, umami-rich dressing that elevates simple greens and vegetables into something truly special.
The secret to this dressing is in the technique—blending the aromatics first creates a smooth base, then slowly emulsifying the olive oil in creates that perfect creamy texture. This dressing comes together in just five minutes but tastes like it took much longer to perfect.
Perfect for Asian-inspired salads, roasted vegetable bowls, or anywhere you want to add a touch of sophistication and depth of flavor. Make a batch and store it in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
