It doesn't seem to have any oil and tastes basic -- like rice vinegar mixed with sugar. Anyone make this??

 
I've had some clear japanese dressings with mirin in them, but I don't have...

...a recipe.

I do have a recipe for one similar to the ginger and rice vinegar dressing served at Benihana. It is delicious.

chinese dressing

I have a bottle of the dressing a local place here uses on their chinese chicken salad. It became so requested, they bottled it. The ingredients are expeller pressed canola oil (whatever that is), water, rice wine vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, salt, garlic, black pepper, xantham gum.
It's from Comforts, I use it all the time. So good.

 
You are looking for Chinese Chicken Salad dressing? Here is a good T&T one

This is my favorite Chinese Chicken Salad- the dressing is excellent:


CHINESE CHICKEN SALAD
(serves 2)

4 cooked chicken half-breasts, chilled and shredded
1 head lettuce, torn into bite-sized pieces
6 green onions, chopped
1 can mandarin orange slices, drained
bunch Chinese parsley, chopped
1 package Wun Ton Chips (also called Won Ton Chips- just simply egg roll skins cut in strips and fried in oil until crisp)

Dressing:
¼ C salad oil
¼ C sesame oil
4 T sugar
6 T seasoned rice vinegar (there are two kinds of rice vinegar- one is just vinegar and the other is called seasoned rice vinegar or sushi vinegar- they are not really interchangeable in this recipe)
salt, pepper to taste
Blend dressing items. Mix together lettuce, green onions, mandarin oranges and Chinese parsley. Toss with dressing. Sprinkle Wun Ton Chips over top.
