Honey Poppyseed Salad Dressing
It’s spring and our garden if full of lovely lettuce, radish and onions. Of course, we eat lots of salad this time of the year, so as I make homemade salad dressings I’ll be sure to keep you updated with the recipes.
We eat lots of Italian Dressing (oil/vinegar base) but sometimes it’s nice to have something a little different and sweeter .. What’s better than a Poppy Seed Dressing on delicate spring lettuce – especially in a few weeks when you can toss in a handful of fresh picked ripe strawberries!
3/4 c Honey, Preferably Local and Raw
1/3c Apple Cider Vinegar (I only use Braggs’ Raw Organic Apple Cider Vinegar!)
1/8c Onion, Chopped (I used 5 freshly foraged Ramp Bulbs!! Shallots or scallions would be good too!)
3t Ground Mustard
1t Poppy Seeds
1/2t Sea Salt
1c Organic Olive Oil
1/4c water
Put everything in your blender and blend till smooth!! It’s super yummy, while I’ve been writing this post – you know I keep “tasting” the dressing out of the bottle.. I’m counting down till dinner to have another big salad!
This has become my favorite salad dressing recipe. I make it weekly. I omit the onions, but that’s the only change I’ve made. Delicious!
Sooooo good! I cut the honey to 1/2 cup
Thank you! My husband’s favorite dressing is poppyseed and I could not find one recipe that he liked and did not make me cringe at all the white sugar. This is tastier than the store bought.
Poppyseed dressing is my favorite – will definitely be trying this – thanks!
