Kewpie Deep-Roasted Sesame Dressing, 150 ml

Product Information

By 2000, Kewpie had released their bottled "Deep Roasted Sesame Dressing" in supermarkets and its popularity soared. In fact, to this day it is the number one selling salad dressing in Japan and sold approximately 76 million bottles in 2022! ( Kewpie, 2022) Miso Paste: Miso paste can be easily found at local Asian or Japanese markets in the refrigerated section. I prefer going for the low-sodium version so I have more control over the saltiness. If regular miso paste is only available, you can add a little less then add more miso or soy sauce if more salt is needed. Remember, it's easier to add more! The delicious, bold taste of deep-roasted, whole sesame seeds is the secret ingredient of this signature Japanese restaurant-style creamy salad dressing. Delectable and versatile. Great on salads, cold pasta, as veggie dip, slaw mix or marinade for all types of meat. I f using mirin, look for one with no sugar or syrup. Even though it is optional, if you're going to buy mirin, know that most brands out there are loaded with sugar or corn syrup, but traditionally made mirin should be made by fermenting rice. I like Eden Brand, which is the only one I've seen at a "normal" grocery store that doesn't contain added sweeteners.

A versatile sauce that can be made in one minute and used for so many different purposes. Spruce up a salad, or use it as a dipping sauce – it’s completely up to you. I use avocado oil cuz it's healthy and neutral. If you really want to you can probably use olive oil, but not the extra virgin one cuz that has a strong flavour. You can always try though!) Sesame oil - not only adds a deeper sesame flavor but also helps thin out the dressing so that it becomes easier to pour.

This is my attempt to recreate the popular Kewpie brand "Deep Roasted Sesame Dressing." My Japanese friend recommended it, and we got hooked after the first try, and I wanted to recreate it as it's not easy to find here in Vancouver.

A simple Japanese sauce you can easily make at home, this sesame dressing is the creamy Asian sauce you’ve been looking for.

Diagonally slice the red bell pepper into 1 cm wide pieces. Cut the bacon into 3 cm strips.Toast for a Deep Nuttiness: Even though you can buy toasted sesame seeds, it makes a world of difference if you toast them again before making the dressing. You’ll get much deeper flavors that are earthy, smoky, and nutty. DO NOT skip this step! When you think of “Japanese salad dressing,” most of us in the U.S. would think of that orange, tangy, gingery salad dressings that are served at the “Japanese” restaurants and steakhouses. Interestingly enough, you really don’t see that salad dressing in Japan! Sesame salad dressing is one of the most popular salad dressings in Japan, sold in so many different brands. SO delicious! Toasting the sesame seeds really added an extra depth in flavors. The dressing was easy to make and has such a rich yet versatile blend of ingredients. Will be a staple of mine g FB or sure!

For some reason, I thought that ground sesame would be easy to find – at least online. Apparently, not a lot of cuisines use ground sesame – only the Mediterranean and Middle-eastern cuisines use it in the form of tahini and in Japanese dishes.The recipe below is a well-balanced salad dressing. But you can always use it as a starting point and adjust some of the ingredients to your taste. For example: I also substituted tahini because we were out of sesame seeds. Second time, having read about really roasting the seeds dark,I tried frying/ roasting the thing in a cast iron pan. Had to keep stirring and flattening the clumps and flipping them, then added 1/2c sesame seed oil. Rather stunned but it worked really well, adding great flavour and depth. I am not a green salad person. I do not like green salad. But put this dressing on it and I'll eat an entire bowl anytime. The best part is it can keep in the fridge for up to a month, so it’s ready to grab when you need it most. Key to Creaminess: To achieve a slightly sweet creaminess, I use Kewpie Japanese mayo. The main difference between Japanese and American mayo is that the former uses only yolks and is slightly sweeter. This produces an even richer creamy mayo!
