Spinach and strawberries what an odd combination for a recipe. That is what I thought before trying this the first time. Now I get many requests to bring this for dinner parties. The raspberry wine vinegar adds a marvelous taste, and compliments the first two ingredients. This salad is very eye pleasing in crystal. Ingredients:
1 lb spinach (i pinch off the larger stems) |
1 pint strawberry, sliced set a few aside (egg slicer works wonders) |
1/2 cup pecans, toasted |
1/3 cup roland raspberry red wine vinegar |
1/2 cup sugar or 1/2 cup sugar substitute |
1 teaspoon dry mustard |
3/4 cup vegetable oil |
2 teaspoons poppy seeds |
Directions:
1. Toast pecans over low heat, set aside to cool.
2. Combine dressing ingredients and shake well.
3. Toss and garnish with a few sliced strawberries.
4. Serve immediately.
5. (Thanks to Chef #320254's review I'm updating this) If you'd like, use a high speed mini-mixer to emulsify the dressing.
6. Roland, makes a Raspberry Flavored Wine Vinegar.
