Asian-style dressings are appealing because they balance salty, acidic, and aromatic flavors with very few ingredients. This Japanese-style home dressing works particularly well with seafood, chilled noodles, and crisp vegetables.
💡 Good ways to use it:
- chilled soba or rice noodles;
- warm squid or shrimp salad;
- fresh cabbage salads with sesame.

📖 Ingredients
👨🍳 Method
- Add the onion, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, mustard, and both oils to a jar with a lid.
- Shake well until the sugar dissolves and the ingredients are evenly combined.
- Add 2 tablespoons of clean water and shake again.
- Taste the dressing with a little of the food you plan to serve it with. If it feels too concentrated, add a little more water. Add extra salt only if necessary, because soy sauce is already salty.
Recipe inspiration: the base combination is inspired by Jamie Oliver's Japanese dressing. The Lines version is edited for home use with simpler guidance on adjusting concentration and saltiness.
