It’s time to level-up your salads with this smart trick.
My fallback recipe for salad dressing isIna Gartens simple two-ingredient vinaigrette.
And thats when it hit me.

I can upgrade the vinaigrette with the umami powerhouse thats always stocked in my pantry: soy sauce.
I would have been on that boat, too, had I not tried it myself.
After making the vinaigrette, I mixed in a tablespoon of soy sauce.

I recommend you start with a teaspoon and go from there, adding more to suit your palate.
For those of you who love sweet salad dressing, use a sweeter soy sauce.
I recommendLee Kum Kees sweet soy sauce, as it also has a bit of smoky caramel flavor.
