Ground flaxseed contributes a nutty flavor, as well as omaga-3 fatty acids, to salad dressings. The flax seed mixture thickens as it stands and gives the dressing it's texture. Originally from Cooking Light. Perfect with Warm Salmon Salad a la Provencal. We love this recipe in the summer with fresh salad greens and grilled salmon. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon flax seed |
1/4 cup water |
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar |
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard |
1/2 teaspoon anchovy paste |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1 garlic clove, crushed |
Directions:
1. Place the flax seed in a clean coffee grinder or blender and process until finely ground.
2. Place flax seed meal in a medium bowl; add water, stirring with a whisk.
3. Let stand 5 minutes.
4. Add vinegar and remaining ingredients; stir with a whisk.
5. Store dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
6. Store remaining flax seed in the refrigerator since it's high in fat, it can go rancid easily.
