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:

  • Choose ripe papaya: For the best flavor and texture, use ripe papaya that has a deep orange color and yields to gentle pressure.

  • Adjust the sweetness: If you find the vinaigrette is too tart, add a little honey or maple syrup to taste. You can also add a pinch of salt to balance out the flavors.
  • Use a variety of herbs: Feel free to experiment with different herbs in your vinaigrette. Some good options include cilantro, basil, and mint.
  • Make a big batch: This vinaigrette will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. So, feel free to make a big batch and use it on salads, grilled vegetables, or even fish and chicken.

This papaya citrus vinaigrette is a healthy and flavorful dressing that is perfect for salads, grilled vegetables, and even fish and chicken.
