GINGER SALAD DRESSING



Ginger Salad Dressing image

Love ginger? You'll love this homemade salad dressing recipe! It's full of fresh ginger flavor, balanced by a touch of maple syrup and apple cider vinegar. Recipe yields 3/4 cup dressing.

Provided by Cookie and Kate

Categories     Salad Dressing

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, to taste
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey, to taste
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
About 20 twists of freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a jar or small bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients until fully blended. Sometimes, if your mustard is cold, it will need a few minutes to warm up before it fully incorporates.
  • Taste, and adjust if necessary-for more tartness, add another teaspoon of apple cider vinegar, or for more sweetness/balance, add another teaspoon or two of maple syrup (I usually add one).
  • This salad dressing will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 10 days. Real olive oil can solidify slightly when cold; if that happens, simple let it warm to room temperature for a few minutes or microwave it in a microwave-safe jar for no more than 15 to 30 seconds.
