AP’s Balsamic Vinaigrette.
Food for the body is not enough. There must be food for the SOUL.” - Dorothy Day
OK! As a reminder, blogs apparently don’t let you reverse the order in which they are published, so for your inital lessons in what to buy, what to cook, where to find the ingredients, you will have to start at the “end”, i.e., the beginning.
Today, some brief notes about salad dressings.
AP’s dressing: take one grey poupon jar, 99% empty. Add four good shakes of a low sodium soy sauce, then fill to the half way point with balsamic vinegar. Shake well.
To dress your salad, add a few tablespoons of good EVOO and toss well to coat the greens. Then, and only then, add the grey poupon dresssing and again toss well.
Grandpa’s House Dressing: Begin with about 2 Tablespoons Helmann’s mayo in a small bowl. Add white vinegar to liquify to a nice consistency and salt and pepper to taste. Stir. Given a while to rest in the fridge is best. Toss well with a nice salad.
