Start by assembling all your ingredients. Measure each item carefully. Having everything at your fingertips will make the process seamless.

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the rice wine vinegar and sweet hoisin glaze. This pairing creates the foundation of your dressing, balancing acidity with sweetness. Whisk it together until it’s smooth.

Next, throw in the freshly grated ginger and minced garlic. These ingredients are where the magic happens. The ginger gives that distinctive warmth, while the garlic adds depth. Whisk again!

Now, add the dark roasted sesame oil and vegetable oil. Both oils contribute rich flavors, while the vegetable oil helps smooth it out. You guessed it—whisk it until combined!

Finally, add the tamari soy sauce and brown sugar. The tamari brings umami, while the brown sugar introduces a touch of sweetness. Mix everything thoroughly. Taste it and adjust seasoning if you like, adding a little more vinegar or sugar to balance it to your personal liking.

Your dressing is now ready! You can use it right away or store it in the refrigerator. It’ll thicken slightly when chilled, enhancing its texture.
