Cook’s Note
A chopped salad is a great way to make use of odds and ends in the refrigerator, freezer and pantry. To make an Asian-style vinaigrette, whisk 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil into the base herb vinaigrette. If you like it spicy, whisk in 1 teaspoon chile sauce, such as sriracha. The vinaigrettes can be stored, refrigerated, in an airtight container. Shake before using.
