It's surprising how often even accomplished cooks are wary of making their own salad dressings and settle for bottled ones. My daughters, Lori and Tracy, came up with a recipe that's so easy, yet always garners raves. Ingredients:
1/2 small shallot, minced |
1 rounded teaspoon dijon mustard |
1/4 cup grapeseed oil |
1 tablespoon virgin olive oil |
1/4 cup white balsamic vinegar |
1 tablespoon champagne, sherry, or red wine vinegar |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
freshly ground black pepper |
5 ounces mesclun salad mix |
1/2 bosc pear, thinly sliced |
1/4 cup dried cranberries |
crumbled gorgonzola, to taste |
Directions:
1. Combine first 8 ingredients in a glass jar; cover, and shake until well blended. 2. Toss greens with desired amount of dressing in a large bowl. Sprinkle with sliced pear, cranberries, and cheese. |
