LABELLED INGREDIENTS NEEDED FOR SWEET GINGER & LIME DRESSING

How to Make It


  1. Place all the ingredients in a sealed glass container and shake well to combine. 
  2. Taste and adjust ingredients according to your liking. This is quite a tart dressing so if you prefer things a bit sweeter then add some more sugar, honey or maple syrup.
  3. Pour into a sealed glass container and store in the fridge for 4 days or so.

What Can I Use it On?

  • Sensational on tropical fruit such as mango, dragon fruit, pineapple, papaya and paw paw.
  • Wonderful with stone fruit such as peaches, nectarines and cherries.
  • Great as a tart topping on sweet ice cream or yoghurt (try the coconut ones)
  • Stir through cocktails for some tropical flavour, great with vodka and soda! Make sure you strain it first for clearer cocktails.

Tips and Questions


More on Ginger 

Ginger is an herb that originated in South East Asia and a member of the Zingiberaceae family along with galangal, turmeric and cardamom. 

While most people believe that ginger is a root it is in fact a rhizome which is a type of stem that grows underground. 

It has many health benefits and is anti-inflammatory, helps regulate blood sugar, is good for digestion and gastro issues, and great for treating nausea. 

How Much Does This Recipe Make?

This makes approximately half a cup dressing or 8 tablespoons. This is enough dressing for two large salads that serve eight people each. 

The nutritional information has been calculated per tablespoon.

How Long Can I Store It For?

Because of the fresh lime this sweet dressing will only keep for approximately four days in the fridge. Make sure you keep it in a sealed glass container and store it in a cool part of your fridge and not on the door.
