SWEET ONION DRESSING
The dressing was a crowd-pleasing sweet onion recipe that we'd used at Old Lahaina Luau. It's made with a fresh, uncooked sweet onion, that gets puréed with cider vinegar, sugar, Dijon mustard, and oil. Try it on our Maui Kale Salad with cabbage, spicy peanuts, and potato chips.

Steps:
- In a blender, combine the vinegar, sugar, onion, celery salt, mustard, and black pepper and process until smooth. With the blender on its lowest speed, gradually add the oil in a steady stream until the dressing is thickened. Transfer to a jar or sealable container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Tips:
- To save time, use pre-chopped kale or a salad mix that includes kale.
- If you don't have sweet onion, use a regular yellow onion and add a little bit of sugar to the dressing.
- You can also use other nuts in this salad, such as almonds, walnuts, or pecans.
- If you don't have any dried cranberries, you can use raisins or chopped dried apricots.
- For a vegan version of this salad, omit the feta cheese.
