Su-miso (Japanese Vinegar and Miso Dressing)

This is a very simple dressing/sauce that has a multitude of uses. Leave out the dashi for more of dip like consistency that goes great with vegetable sticks. It makes a wonderful dressing for cold tofu,　seaweed salads and seafood.

The most common brown miso works best in this recipe, white miso can be used but you will want to decrease the sugar as it is sweeter. Miso can vary in taste and salt content so taste it as you are making it adjusting the amounts to your taste.

• 4 T brown miso
  
• 3 T sugar
  
• 2-1/2 T rice vinegar
  
• 2 T dashi (powder is fine, just add a little to 2 T of water)
  
• 1/2 tsp karashi (Japanese mustard)
  

Mix the miso and sugar together then add the vinegar.

Slowly add the dashi, while mixing, until it reaches the desired consistency.

Add karashi to taste.
