Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Place the white miso in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in the rice vinegar until the mixture loosens into a smooth paste.
  2. Whisk in the canola oil, low-sodium soy sauce, and toasted sesame oil until fully combined and creamy.
  3. Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 month. Whisk or shake well before serving.

Tips and Storage

  • Whisk the vinegar into the miso gradually to prevent lumps.
  • Choose white miso for a mellow, lightly sweet flavor.
  • Use toasted sesame oil, not plain sesame oil, for the deepest nutty aroma.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
