Home Made Salad Dressings Don’t Be Afraid of Good Fat in Your Diet!
Home made salad dressings were traditionally full of fat. This helps your body to absorb some of the nutrients in the salad. So go ahead and make your own salad dressings, and don’t be afraid of the fat! Use them liberally in your diet.
French Vinaigrette
1 Clove Garlic (crushed) 2 teaspoons Dijon Mustard 2 teaspoons Miso (optional) 2 Tablespoons Organic Balsalmic Vinegar 1/2 cup Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Mince the garlic in a mini blender, then add the mustard and miso and mix well. Add the vinegar, and then the olive oil, and mix until creamy smooth. You can add fresh herbs if you have any, and also a little water if it is too thick.
Keeps in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Walnut Dressing
1 Tablespoon Dijon Mustard 2 Tablespoons Raw Apple Cider Vinegar 1/2 cup Toasted Walnut Oil
Mix the mustard and vinegar together until smooth. Then add the walnut oil. Add a little water (1 or 2 teaspoons) if needed to make it less thick.
Keeps a couple days in the fridge.
Blue Cheese Dressing
2 oz Blue Cheese (about 1/4 cup, crumbled) 3/4 cup French Vinaigrette 1/4 cup sour cream or creme fraiche
If you can find it, use genuine Roquefort cheese that comes from raw sheep’s milk. This is rich in lauric acid and other nutrients. Whip the vinaigrette and sour cream together until smooth. Gently stir in the blue cheese.
Caesar Dressing
3/4 Cup French Vinaigrette 2 - 4 anchovy filets 2 Tablespoons finely grated real parmesan cheese 1 egg yolk from farm fresh eggs
Blend until smooth.
