Answer 8

Here is a collection of vinaigrette and dressing recipes I have collected from various places all over the web


1.Herbal Balsamic Vinegar
Here is a wonderful balsamic vinegar tip: The legendary artisan balsamic vinegars that we hear about from the Modena region of Italy ARE NOT exported. What we get are really dumbed-down versions. Yet, there is a solution: buy a mid-range product for about $8 to $10 per litre, then when you get ready to use it -- especially in salad vinaigrettes-- whisk in some dark brown sugar. The ratio suggested is 1 part sugar to 10 parts balsamic vinegar. Figure that in teaspoons or tablespoons, depending on how much vinaigrette you want to make (i.e. 1 teaspoon brown sugar to 10 teaspoons vinegar). Then, whisk in a dash of salt, some black pepper, maybe a bit of crumbled dried oregano, and a clove of garlic, pressed. Whisk in olive oil last. The tradional ratio on that is 3 parts oil to 1 part vinegar, or you may use more of a 50-50 ratio (more vinegar flavor; less total fat). It is not recommended to amend your entire bottle of vinegar with sugar all at the same time -- just what you are going to use in a given recipe.

1/4 tsp basil
1/4 tsp McCormick's Spicy blend, or other general purpose spice blend
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp Jane's Krazy Mixed Up Salt
Combine in blender at top speed for about a minute, so that all of the onion or shallot is reduced. The result should be a creamy pink dressing. Chill overnight in refrigerator. The result is a mild, oniony dressing with a slightly sweet edge.


Mom's Honey Balsamic Vinaigrette
1/2 C balsamic vinegar
2 tsp honey
1 tsp Dijon mustard
4 tsp cold water
6-8 tsp olive oil
1/4 tsp each of salt and black pepper
Optional: 1/4 - 1/2 tsp herbs such as dill or basil
Warm vinegar and honey in microwave for 20 seconds or more until honey dissolves in vinegar. Add remaining ingredients and whisk well. Shake vigorously after pouring into a bottle and chill before serving.


Southwestern Vinaigrette

1/4 C white or rice wine vinegar
1 tsp mustard powder
1/2 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp cilantro
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp cumin
Shake, chill and serve. If you generally top your salad with cheese, pair this dressing with a mild cotija or colby. Avoid sharp or bitter cheeses such as bleu and feta.


Basil-Sesame Dressing
1/4 tsp garlic powder
3 T rice wine vinegar
1 T lemon juice
2 T asiago or the cheese of your choice
1/2 tsp dried basil
2-4 leaves of fresh basil
2 T chopped Italian or regular parsley
1/2 C extra light olive oil
1/2 tsp toasted sesame oil
1/4 tsp black pepper

Caper Vinaigrette

1 T fresh parsley (not dried!)
2 T lemon juice
2 T rice vinegar
2 T capers, drained
1/4 tsp dijon mustard
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/3-1/2 C extra light olive oil
Combine in blender until very thoroughly mixed. Makes a very vinagery dressing - increasing the amount of olive oil used will change the balance. Chill and serve. Good with raw veggies.


Cilantro-Lime Vinaigrette
1/2 C extra light olive oil
2 T plain yoghurt
2 T lemon juice
2 T rice vinegar
1/4 C fresh, shreaded cilantro leaves, tightly packed
1/4 tsp each garlic powder, thyme and black pepper
1/8 tsp cumin
a squeeze of fresh lime juice - about a quarter lime

2 T each plain non-fat yoghurt, lemon juice and red wine vinegar
1 T Dijon mustard 1/4 tsp each garlic powder, sage, thyme, basil and oregano

Fresh Tomato-Yoghurt Dressing
2 Roma tomatoes, peeled and chopped
1/4 C each extra light olive oil and plain non-fat yoghurt
2 T each red wine vinegar and lemon juice
1/2 tsp mustard powder, oregano and basil
1/4 tsp black pepper
dash of cayenne, garlic powder and Jane's Krazy Mixed Up Salt
This dressing responds well to optional extras like a sliver of fresh onion, a chunk of feta cheese, fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Feel free to experiment. Put chopped tomatoes, lemon juice and vinegar in blender and blend at high speed. Add other ingredients, blending again at medium speed. Chill overnight before serving.

thin stream. When the mixture gets too thick again, add 1 more tsp. each
water and lemon juice. Repeat until all oil is used. If the mayonnaise
