All-Purpose Chinese Cold Dish Dressing (万能凉拌汁)
As a lover of Chinese cuisine, I find myself enjoying cold dishes (凉拌菜) whenever I eat in Chinese restaurants.
Realistically, we know that these cold dishes aren’t hard to make because all the vegetables ingredients used can easily be found in our supermarkets. All we need, is the dressing to bring everything together.
Here’s an all-purpose dressing recipe that can be used for noodles and vegetable side dishes that I like to use when I crave for a simple Chinese dish at home.
