I found this recipe in the 'Joy of Cooking' cookbook. I was looking for a poppy seed and honey dressing recipe that was like a dressing that I loved at the Bittersweet Cafe in Kent, WA. This dressing is delicious. 'Joy of Cooking' recommends using a salad of fruits and greens, but a simple garden salad is a perfect mate as well. The step with the immersion blender is optional and was not in the cookbook, but I found it helpful to keep the ingredients from seperating and it pureed the shallots perfectly. I hope you enjoy as much as I do. Ingredients:
1/4 cup honey |
3 tablespoons cider vinegar (or other fruit vinegar) |
1 small shallot, minced |
2 teaspoons dijon mustard |
1 teaspoon poppy seed |
salt, to taste |
pepper, to taste |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
Directions:
1. 1. Whisk together in a small bowl until smooth: honey, vinegar, shallot, dijon, poppy seeds, and salt & pepper. 2. 2. While whisking constantly, gradually add the olive oil. 3. 3. (Optional) Once all ingredients are added together and salt & pepper has been added to taste. Blend with an immersion blender. 4. 4. Serve with salad of your choice. |
