As someone who loves salty things, then Miso is a real gift! It's not only salty but it's got a great depth of flavour, that is a perfect base for an Asian-style salad.
I've always found that salmon really lends itself to Asian flavours, so wanted to include it as the main ingredient of this dish.
Edamame beans are a soya bean, so they also work really well with the Miso dressing (which is a fermented soybean paste). Other ingredients include cucumber and avocado, as they have gentler flavours, that also add a change of texture.
In terms of the dressing, then do adjust to taste. For example, you could increase the amount of honey if you prefer something a little sweeter.
2 tablespoons of white miso paste
1 tablespoon of rice vinegar
1 tablespoon of sesame oil
2 tablespoons of rapeseed oil (any flavourless oil)
½ tablespoon of honey
1½ tablespoons of cold water
1 teaspoon of finely grated ginger (optional)
Method
- Place all of the dressing ingredients in a bowl or jar and mix well to combine. Adjust to taste.
