French Dressing With Sour Cream image

Ever since I enjoyed this dressing on salads everywhere in France, I have been trying to duplicate the recipe. It was simple, I knew, but it took me ages to get it right. It might be even better with lime juice, which I can't get right now. Please adjust the tanginess to your taste. I love the freshness, the French-ness of this dressing!

Time 15m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 8

60 ml lemon juice, freshly squeezed (1/4 cup, or use lime juice)
10 -15 ml sugar (2 - 3 teaspoons, please start with 2 tsps and adjust later)
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon mustard, smooth, Dijon
1/4 teaspoon pepper, white
60 ml sour cream (1/4 cup, can use creme fraiche)
180 ml olive oil, virgin (3/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Squeeze lemon or limes over a sieve into a medium mixing bowl.
  • Whisk in the other ingredients (not the olive oil) until very smooth, and the sugar has just about dissolved.
  • Whisk in the olive oil in a thin stream, almost as for mayonnaise. The dressing will thicken slightly -- it won't become thick, and it's not supposed to.
  • Taste the dressing: you might want to add more lemon juice. Mine needed a squeeze more than stated above.
  • Decant into a salad dressing container or bottle.
  • Great over any type of salad.

This dressing is not worth the effort. It's not very flavorful and it's not very creamy.

I found this dressing to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding some more herbs or spices to give it more flavor.

This dressing is a bit too sour for my taste. I would recommend using less sour cream or adding some honey to balance out the flavor.

This dressing is a great way to add some extra flavor to your salads. It's also a good way to use up leftover sour cream.

I love the combination of flavors in this dressing. The sour cream, Dijon mustard, and fresh herbs are a perfect match.

I was a bit skeptical about using sour cream in a salad dressing, but I'm so glad I tried this recipe. It's delicious! The sour cream gives the dressing a nice tang and creaminess. I will definitely be making this again.
