Start by peeling and grating the fresh ginger root using a microplane or small grater to measure 2 tablespoons.
Peel and mince a large garlic clove to ensure a smooth texture in your dressing.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the grated ginger and minced garlic.
Add rice vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame oil to the bowl and whisk together.
Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuing to whisk to create a smooth, emulsified mixture.
Stir in the freshly squeezed lemon juice, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Season with salt, black pepper, and stevia extract, adjusting to taste.
Once fully combined, transfer the dressing to a jar or a bottle. Securely seal and shake well before each use.
Refrigerate the dressing for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Shake or stir before serving.
