This salad dressing is fantastic!! The only change I've made is that I add a splash of sesame oil. Perfect on all kinds of Asian salads!

I thought this dressing was way too bland. I added sesame oil and terriyaki sauce and it helped it a lot. With those additions the recipe is a keeper, but I am rating it based on the recipe as is- needs additions to be good in my opinion.

It was good but i put fresh ginger, garlic and a chili pepper with sesame oil, salt and pepper into the blender until smooth and added this to the original recipe. It tasted great!!!

this was good. after reading other reviews and for personal preferences, i did make some changes. i didn't add green onions, chow mein noodles, black pepper or poppy seeds. i used extra virgin olive oil and sesame oil in place of the vegetable oil and a packet of splenda instead of white sugar. i also added in canned mardarin oranges with the salad and mixed the dressing in a blender with a carrot.

Loved this salad! For the chicken on top, I cut chicken breast into thin strips and dipped it in an egg/hoisen sauce mixture, breaded with crused cornflakes and fried. May add mandarin oranges next time, as well. Will make again.

OMG, this recipe is so good! I added fresh snow peas, baby corn, red pepper and mandarin oranges. To the dressing, I substituted 1/4 C. ea. veg. & olive oil, 1 Tbsp. sesame seed oil, rice vinegar and left out the poppy seeds. The next time I make this, I might try using bean sprouts, celery, shredded cabbage instead of lettuce, and dry roasted peanuts instead of (toasted) almonds (Other reviewers have suggested many of these changes.) This will certainly become a family favorite, it's easy to make, and it's quick to put together at the last minute.

This was great! I used 1/2 olive oil and 1/2 sesame oil, rice vinegar and splenda in place of the sugar. Also added ground red pepper and garlic powder. The dressing is fabulous and I always have these ingredients at home!
