Here are few recipes I've been meaning to post for quite some time. My favorite dressing recipes for any salad that includes fruit & nuts, as well as a couple of my favorite recipes for candied nuts:
Balsamic Candied Nuts:
1/4c brown sugar
1 T olive oil
1T balsamic
1 c pecans, walnuts etc.
Chile-Spiced Pecans:
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup pecans
Dressings:
Balsamic Vinaigrette
2tsp lemon juice
1 tsp balsamic
1/2 tsp dijon
3 T olive oil
Maple-cider Vinaigrette
3T apple cider vinegar (if you don't have this, just omit it and combine the other 3 ingredients - it's still delicious)
2 T lemon juice
2 T olive oil
1-2 T maple syrup
At a recent visit to Hurd's Orchards, they introduced us to the idea of using preserves in their salad dressings. I recently tried this and it was delicious! I don't know the exact ratios so you'll just have to taste test:
1-2 T favorite preserves (I made this with Peach-pear-pecan preserves from Hurd's)
1-2 T olive oil
1-2 T white wine vinegar
1-2 T maple syrup (depending on how sweet you want it)
