In a medium-sized bowl, combine white miso paste, rice vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, honey, and lime juice.
Add the grated fresh ginger and minced garlic to the mixture.
Whisk the ingredients together until the miso paste is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
Gradually add water to the mixture, whisking continuously until you achieve the desired consistency. Adjust the amount of water depending on how thick you prefer the dressing.
Season the dressing with salt and black pepper to taste.
Taste and adjust any seasoning as necessary, adding more honey if you like it sweeter, or more lime juice for additional tang.
Transfer the dressing to a jar with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together, though it can be used immediately if needed.
Shake the jar before each use. The dressing can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
