CITRUS-BASIL VINAIGRETTE



Citrus-Basil Vinaigrette image

This dressing is lovely yellow color, and we use it on a mixed green salad (mixed Romaine and European greens), tossed with small broccoli and cauliflower florets, raisins or sweetened dried cranberries, and shredded Cheddar or crumbled Gorgonzola cheese. The sweet-tart zestiness of the dressing perks up the salad! The yield depends on how much salad dressing you prefer. For us, this recipe makes enough dressing for about 4 large salads.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh citrus fruits. If you don't have fresh citrus on hand, you can use bottled lemon or lime juice, but the flavor will not be as bright.
  • If you don't have ground cumin, you can use whole cumin seeds. Just toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, or until they are fragrant. Then, grind them in a spice grinder or mortar and pestle.
  • This dressing is best when made fresh, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you are storing the dressing, be sure to shake it well before using.
  • This dressing is a great way to add flavor to salads, grilled meats, and fish. It can also be used as a marinade.
  • If you want a creamier dressing, you can add a tablespoon of sour cream or yogurt.

Conclusion:

This citrus cumin salad dressing is a flavorful and versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are looking for a light and refreshing dressing for a salad or a flavorful marinade for grilled meats, this dressing is a great option.
