Title: Oriental Salad dressing recipe?
Post by: Mumba on March 28, 2013, 06:31:10 PM

Does anyone have a killer oriental salad dressing recipe to share. I have been on an oriental chicken salad crave but have stayed away because I know the dressings are carbed out...
Thanks,
mumba!

I have one that I remade from a carb loaded recipe......

4 tablespoons red wine vinegar

squirts of liquid splenda (http://www.zerosweetner.com/) (to make 5 tablespoons)

a mushed up chicken bouillon cube....or you can use the powdered chicken bouillon

about 1 tablespoon water (optional)

some olive oil

when I used to make this and it was carby, the rations were 4 tablesppons red wine vinegar to 5 tablespoons sugar....and then i put in two packets from chicken flavor top ramen....now I use a bouillon cube, etc. 

I use shredded cabbage, some small diced celery for crunch, some sliced almonds for crunch, and a little bit toasted sesame seeds for flavor -- put them under the broiler but watch them like a hawk because they will burn fast if you leave them.  after they cool, i put them on my little salad.....this has a nice flavor that i like and a nice crunch.

That sounds great, Elizabeth!!! :) :) :)

I would substitute 15 drops FTS Zero for the Splenda.
They are both "sucralose". But I have the Zero handy.

ooooooooooooooooooooopsie!

This is how much liquid splenda (http://www.zerosweetner.com/) exactly to make the salad....made it this morning and looked at recipe I put here and splenda to "equal 5 tablespoons" is WAY too much.

I did five squirts of liquid splenda (http://www.zerosweetner.com/).....

I'm not sure how much the zero is though.

It's good though.

dang i must have been brain dead when i first posted that recipe....

it's not "red wine vinegar".....it should be "apple cider vinegar".....gives very different flavor....
