This is a lightened-up version of the famous house dressing from my restaurant Sweet Kitchen & Bar. People would always ask to buy it by the quart to take home, and for a while I consdered packaging it to sell retail. This dressing is always a big hit with kids, because it is sweet and tangy and doesn't have an overwhelmingly oniony taste. For a quick side dish (my son and stepson love this), I slice up seedless cucumbers and red peppers and toss with this dressing - simple, healthy done!
½cupsweet onion, finely chopped and microwave steamed for two minutes
½teaspoon Dijon mustard
3tablespoonshoney
½teaspoonsea salt
1 tablespoonbalsamic vinegar(for color)
Instructions
Put all of the ingredients together in a blender, and process until smooth. Chill for an hour to thicken slightly. Store chilled, and use within seven days for best flavor.
Notes
If you prefer a slightly tangier, less sweet dressing, just cut back on the honey.
