CREAMY GINGERED PINEAPPLE SALAD DRESSING



Creamy Gingered Pineapple Salad Dressing image

A quick an easy salad dressing. This is wonderful over grilled pork or a green salad with fresh citrus; as well as grilled chicken and seafood. The pineapple juice is just from a can of sliced pineapple (unsweetened), and I will use the pineapple as a garnish, often grilling it. Fresh ginger and the honey dijon mustard really makes a difference in this dressing.

Categories     Sauces

Time 7m

Yield 1 1/4 cups salad dressing, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup pineapple juice, unsweetened
2 tablespoons honey dijon mustard (if you don't have honey dijon mustard, use 2 tablespoons dijon and 1/2 tablespoon honey)
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup pineapple juice

Steps:

  • Option -- You can use a mix of orange juice and pineapple rather than all pineapple if you think pineapple is too sweet. I happen to love it with the mustard and ginger. But you can mix the two if you prefer.
  • Dressing -- Just add all the ingredients and whisk well to combine. Chill at least 30 minutes.
  • Serve -- ENJOY! Serve over your favorite greens, pork, chicken, or seafood.

MOM'S 5 CUP SALAD WITH PINEAPPLE DRESSING



Mom's 5 Cup Salad With Pineapple Dressing image

When I lost this recipe, I searched everywhere for one just like it. None of them had the dressing, which, IMO, makes this fruit salad. The dressing is very similar to what's used in Taffy Apple Salads, so I used that for awhile. I finally found my mom's recipe in a basket full of old recipes and want to post it here. I could eat all of this in one sitting. I don't care for the coconut, so I don't add it. I also guessed on the number of servings. Prep time includes time spent whisking dressing.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe pineapple: Use fresh, ripe pineapple for the best flavor. A ripe pineapple will have a sweet, fragrant smell and its skin will be slightly yellow.
  • Use a variety of greens: Don't just stick to lettuce. Try using a mix of greens, such as arugula, spinach, and kale, to add flavor and texture to your salad.
  • Add some crunch: Add some crunchy elements to your salad, such as chopped nuts, seeds, or croutons. This will help to balance out the soft texture of the pineapple and greens.
  • Don't overload the dressing: A little bit of dressing goes a long way. Too much dressing can overwhelm the other flavors in the salad.
  • Serve immediately: Pineapple salad is best served immediately after it is made. The pineapple will start to wilt if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Pineapple salad is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a pineapple salad that will be the star of your next meal.
