• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil

Season the dressing with black pepper to taste, whisking one final time to incorporate the seasoning evenly.

Step 6

Transfer the salad dressing into an airtight container and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
