I cut back on the ginger by about a third and it was fantastic. The bread cuts the heat.

I excitedly made the dressing for this salad and I feel like the ratios are off. 3 Tbsps. of ginger was overpowering and “hot” to the taste. Fortunately, I have a ton of homegrown cherry tomatoes and smartly didn’t cute them up before testing the dressing. So something is definitely off with the ratios. Maybe the vinegar and olive oil ratios, I just don’t know. I was super excited to try but was very disappointed.
