For my 46th birthday my husband treated me to a one-evening cooking course. It must have been one of the most enjoyable evenings I've ever had. This recipe is from that course. While the salad itself is simple, the dressing is phenomenal. Well, I thought it was phenomenal.... Ingredients:
3 cups salad greens |
1 carrot, shredded into strips |
1 pomegranate |
1 tablespoon honey |
1 tablespoon dijon mustard (the kind with lots of seeds in it) |
2 garlic cloves, finely minced |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper |
1 teaspoon dark brown sugar |
1/4 cup white vinegar |
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar |
3/4 cup olive oil |
Directions:
1. Place the salad greens and carrot strips in the salad bowl.
2. Cut open the pomegranate, collect the seeds and toss in with the salad greens.
3. Make the dressing by tossing honey, mustard, garlic, salt, pepper and brown sugar into a food processor. Give it a whirl.
4. Add the vinegars and give it another whirl.
5. While the stuff is zhuzzing along in there, add the olive oil slowly through the top chute.
6. Dress the salad, experience intense yumminess.
