Description

This versatile, sweet and citrusy dressing will brighten your plate.


Ingredients

Scale

1 bunch cilantro, chopped

1 garlic clove, minced

1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons Lime Juice (or a combo of lime-grapefruit juice)

1 scant cup of canola oil

1/2 cup honey

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper


Instructions

Combine all ingredients except the oil in a blender or in a jar with an emersion blender.  Blend until smooth.  Starting with a couple drops at a time, add the oil in a slow and steady stream.



Notes

I almost always use canola or another neutral oil for salad dressing.  I find extra virgin olive oil competes with the flavors in the dressing and can have a heavy feel to it once emulsified into the dressing.
