MARIEL'S AMAZING SALAD DRESSING



Mariel's Amazing Salad Dressing image

This recipe was adopted after Mean Chef (IHHDRO) left the site. His original comments were, "A very mustardy, robust dressing for salad greens. Can also be used as a marinade for fish. Recipe adapted from Mariel Hemingway." I first prepared it at the urging of Shelly, and wasn't sorry. My original review stated, "This is a very mustardy dressing. I followed Shelly's suggestion of reducing the mustard and adding more to taste as I blended the dressing. I used a dijon dressing and black olives, as this is what I had on hand. I also cut back the recipe to yield only enough for a couple of salads. I knew that my hubby wouldn't be interested, and wanted to make only enough for me to use in a day or so. The flavors are bright and fresh and really add to simple tossed salads. I like the fact that I am gaining the nutrition of the spinach in this dressing." This has become one of my favorite dressings.

THISCLOSE TO EAST SIDE MARIO'S SALAD DRESSING

When we lived in Ontario and Nova Scotia, we'd go to East Side Mario's two to three times per month, mostly for the free salad and bread. I LOVE their dressing, and since we moved to Manitoba, I have been looking for a copycat of that dressing. This is pretty close. I found the basic recipe on another site, and modified it slightly

Time 5m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup vegetable oil (Olive is a little too strong)
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon oregano, crushed
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon thyme

Steps:

  • Combine all in a measuring cup, and mix with an immersion blender.
  • Pour into a container and refrigerate.
  • The longer it sits, the better it gets.
  • Prep time is cooking time.
  • To make this truly authentic, make the salad with iceberg lettuce, rounds of red onion, hot pickled peppers (we don't like them, but the salad comes with two), croutons and oodles of grated parm cheese- the fresh stuff, not out of a can.
