Lemon-Soy Dressing

I'm not into salads, but if ever I have to prepare salad, this dressing from The Garden-Fresh Vegetable Cookbook looks easy enough to make. And best of all, I have all the ingredients available all the time.

If you were to peek into my refrigerator at any point in the year, this is the salad dressing you would be most likely to find. It is a pleasing blend of flavors, is low in fat, keeps forever, and is very, very good.

1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup dark sesame oil
6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
4 garlic cloves, minced

Combine all the ingredients in a glass jar and shake well.
Serve at once or store in an airtight container for several months in the refrigerator. Stir or shake well before using.

Makes 1 cup.
