Why this is the BEST Salad Dressing
I don’t know about you, but I am a HUGE fan of Thai food! All the colors and fun flavor combinations have me absolutely SOLD on it, so you know that means… today I am introducing a new Thai recipe for you and your crew! If you loved grilled thai beef salad and thai mango avocado salad, you are sure to love this sweet and tangy authentic Thai salad dressing to bring your salad to the next level! This dressing is SO easy to whip up, is made with good-for-you ingredients, and has a flavor profile that really has it all. It’s nutty, sweet, tangy, and has the perfect balance to put the final touch on your salad!
Ingredients Needed
You will only need a handful of ingredients to make yourself some thai salad dressing, so you’ll be dressing up and devouring a salad in NO time! Plus- it’s simple and fast to throw together. Here’s everything you will need to round up before getting started on this recipe:
- Natural creamy Peanut Butter
- Neutral flavored oil
- Fresh Lime Juice
- Honey
- Reduced Sodium Soy Sauce
- White Vinegar
- Fish Sauce
- Fresh Ginger
What is Fish Sauce
If you’ve never cooked with fish sauce before or used it at all, it might be time for you to go to your local supermarket and pick up a bottle! Fish sauce is made from salted fish such as anchovies that have been fermented for about 2 years. It has quite the “fishy” smell, but it adds SO much flavor to all kinds of Asian dishes, including this thai salad dressing recipe.
How to make Thai Salad Dressing
This is honestly the FASTEST salad dressing recipe known to humankind. There is no fancy set of instructions at all- you literally just need to mix it up and you’ll be ready to enjoy it!
Mix
Place all the dressing ingredients into a small bowl and use a wire whisk to thoroughly combine them!
Enjoy
Pour over top of your favorite salad and DEVOUR!
Make it Your Own
There are so many possibilities when it comes to tweaking this recipe to fit your liking, so I say GO FOR IT! If you want it a little sweeter, add a bit more honey or agave to the mix. If you like it a bit more tart and tangy, bump up the lime! If you’re looking for a spicy thai salad dressing, a squeeze of sriracha will do and if you want it a bit thicker and creamier, add some more peanut butter!
How long Does Homemade Salad Dressing Last?
I need to warn you- this flavorful and delicious salad dressing likely won’t last long in your household because it’s just THAT good. But if you happen to have leftovers or want to make it ahead of time to enjoy on salads all week long, you most definitely can! This dressing will last up to 2 weeks in an airtight container in the fridge. Remember to label it with the date!
