When the weather gets warm, it's time to get excited about salads.

There's just something about a fresh, crunchy salad that makes you feel like you're doing the body good. But sometimes, the same old lettuce can get boring. That's where our carrot ginger salad dressing comes in! It's an exotic combination of carrot and ginger that'll wake up your taste buds while still keeping things light and healthy.

Plus, we've used Native Food Store Cold Pressed Peanut oil in this recipe because of its naturally free from trans-fats, free from cholesterol, made with traditional cold-pressing method which retains oil's natural properties such as purity, flavour, fragrance and nutritional. Peanut oil, also known as groundnut oil or Pinda olie in Dutch is a flavourless oil and has high smoke point—which means it won't burn when heated to high temperatures, and hence can also be used for cooking vegetables on a grill or stovetop.

Let's share this very easy and delicious carrot and ginger salad dressing recipe that you can make using peanut oil.
