Chef Kenny (Las Vegas) Copy Cat Salad Dressing

Here’s an *oil-free dressing inspired by the flavor profile** —dark, thin, tangy, slightly sweet, soy-forward, similar to the style often served at Vegan Chef Kenny’s Las Vegas restaurant, but *fully original and oil-free*:

Ingredients (≈ ½–⅔ cup)

⅓ cup rice vinegar

¼ cup soy sauce or tamari OR vegan worcheshire sauce, like Tonelli brand

1–2 Tbsp water (only to adjust strength)

½–1 tsp maple syrup (optional — barely perceptible)

½ tsp ginger juice (or ⅛ tsp ginger powder)

¼ tsp garlic powder (NOT fresh garlic)

¼ tsp toasted sesame powder (optional, very subtle — or omit entirely)

Juice of lime

Instructions (important for smoothness)

Add everything to a jar or blender cup.

Shake hard for 20–30 seconds or briefly blend.

Taste and fine-tune:

More rice vinegar if it needs bite

A splash more soy if it needs salt

1–2 tsp water if too aggressive

Chill 10–15 minutes before serving.
