Number Of Ingredients 5

3/4 cup orange juice
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar or red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons grated orange peel
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1/2 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Mix first 4 ingredients in bowl. Gradually mix in oil.

Tips:

  • Whisk the dressing ingredients together until they are well combined. You can also use a blender to mix the ingredients together.
  • Taste the dressing and adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more orange juice, balsamic vinegar, or honey, depending on your personal preferences.
  • Use the dressing immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later use. The dressing will keep for up to a week in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

Orange balsamic dressing is a versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads, vegetables, and proteins. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. The next time you are looking for a delicious and healthy dressing, give orange balsamic dressing a try.
