This is my favorite and most requested dress­ing. It goes per­fectly with the Chi­nese Chicken Salad, but I use it for every salad you can imagine.

Prep time: 5 min­utes
Total time: 5 min­utes
Yield: 1/2 cup

1/4 c. veg­etable oil (I use wal­nut or grape­seed oil)
5 T red wine vine­gar
scant 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
1 1/2 tsp. agave syrup
tiny driz­zle of toasted sesame oil, optional

1. In a glass jar, add all ingre­di­ents and shake vig­or­ously until well blended. It sep­a­rates eas­ily and needs shak­ing before each use. Dou­bles well.
