Orange Ginger Dressing

Description
This is great-I really like miso and this dressing is really good with spinach (I just ate it on its own but it would make a great salad accompaniment to an Asian-influenced meal).



Ingredients
1 shallot, peeled (about 1 tablespoon chopped) 1 cup canned mandarin orange segments, including juice 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce 2 tablespoons water 1 tablespoon white miso 1 teaspoon grated orange zest 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 2 inches fresh ginger, peeled

Directions
Put ginger and shallot in a food processor fitted with a metal blade; you could also just mince these with a handheld mincer. Add remaining ingredients and blend.
