I just tried this tonight. I did taste the dressing and tweak it as follows: I used Duke's mayonnaise, which has no added sugar, so I used 2T. brown sugar. I couldn't taste the ginger (Mine is pretty old and may have lost its flavor) so I added an additional 1/4 t. I'm going to buy new for the next batch. I felt it needed more salt and flavor at the end, so I added a couple of sprinkles of Paula Deen's House Seasoning (four parts salt to one part each of black pepper and garlic powder stirred together). With these changes, I thought this was just stellar. I have a favorite go-to American style potato salad recipe courtesy of the Fannie Farmer cookbook, but this has taken a place beside it in my heart. It's different enough to not feel repetitive, while being tasty enough to repeat often. My advice would be to follow the recipe as written for the dressing, then taste and adjust to your preferences. I am just delighted to have found a recipe that's a real keeper. Even my picky husband likes it.
