Use this recipe as a base for a number of cultural combinations. Once the base dressing is created, simply stir in the following ingredients, minced or pulsed in a blender, to create a different dressing or sauce.
Italian: 1/4 cup sundried tomatoes, 2 cloves garlic and 3 tbsp fresh basil.
Thai: 1 1/2 tbsp fresh ginger, 1/2 chile, 3 tbsp fresh cilantro, 2 tbsp fresh basil and 2 tbsp fresh mint.
Asian: 2 tbsp tamari, 1 tsp toasted sesame oil, 2 cloves garlic and 2 tbsp fresh ginger (also see Stir Raw recipe)

Whiat kind of dishes are recommended with this citrus miso sauce? Thanks! -
Hi Laisvidas. Good question. I think this is great as a dressing for an earthy salad like a beet salad....or really any salad. You can also use it as a sauce for a Buddha Bowl- think grain, vegetable, tofu/ bean or tempeh and sauce! Lauren -
Can I leave out the oil? -
Hi Vilmarie, You could leave out the oil, though you would get a thinner (more watery) dressing. You could also try adding a fruit paste to bolster the body of it. Play around with it, it is very versatile. Cheers, Sandy
