The right blend of herbs and spices is the backbone to any freshly-made salad dressing.  Our blends take the work out of making fresh dressings, giving you a fully-finished dressing in minutes.  We recommend that you soak the spice blend first in water to rehydrate the dried herbs and vegetables, then add to the appropriate liquids.  Once blended, salad dressings should stay fresh in your refrigerator for at least a week.  We have found that making fresh dressings is a way to add some pizzazz to your salad dinners, as well as to take some of the calories out of traditional creamy dressings by substituting non-fat yogurt or non-fat sour cream for mayonnaise and other cream-based ingredients. They also make easy vegetable dips!

French Vinaigrette

$10.00$27.00
(Based on 1 review)

Traditional French meals are completed by serving a simple salad course, frequently just lettuce or frisee leaves moistened by a very light vinaigrette. Our French Vinaigrette Dressing is authentically based on shallots, milled mustard seed, and French herbs. After mixing (directions below), pour some dressing into the bottom of your salad bowl before adding the dry lettuce. Toss and enjoy. Also makes a wonderful marinade for asparagus, broccoli, or green beans. Bon appetit!

 

Traditional French dressing or vegetable marinade directions: Mix 2T Blend with 2T water, let stand 5 minutes to rehydrate. Whisk in ½ cup olive oil & 1/4 to 1/3 cup vinegar (typically sherry vinegar, wine vinegar, or our personal favorite, champagne vinegar).

 

Hand blended in small batches: shallots, sea salt, mustard, black pepper, and tarragon.

 

Quick Tips:

  • Toss some French Vinaigrette Spice Blend on white fish before grilling or pan-frying.
