Honey Dijon Vinaigrette is delicious on tender greens and hearty grains |
I was always an early riser and when I was living at home after university I was usually the first one to the kitchen. One early morning I was startled by a spider in the honey pot.
This is my house dressing, my go-to recipe that I always have in the fridge. I often substitute maple syrup for the honey. Both variations are delicious.
In the book this dressing is served with a spinach feta salad but it’s delicious on any kind of green salad. I sometimes substitute walnut oil for the olive oil, and use wine or sherry vinegar in place of the apple cider vinegar.
