SWEET ONION DRESSING



Sweet Onion Dressing image

The dressing was a crowd-pleasing sweet onion recipe that we'd used at Old Lahaina Luau. It's made with a fresh, uncooked sweet onion, that gets puréed with cider vinegar, sugar, Dijon mustard, and oil. Try it on our Maui Kale Salad with cabbage, spicy peanuts, and potato chips.
