Pumpkin Seed Oil Dressing image

The use of pumpkin seed oil gives this salad dressing a unique nutty flavour. A mild honey (e.g. glover honey) in addition with the aceto balsamico will give the dressing a fruity sweetness. Dijon mustard will top it off with slight pepperiness. This dressing works fine with any kind of lettuce.

Time 5m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon aceto balsamico, preferrably blanco
1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon pumpkin seed oil
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Put all ingredients in a small bowl.
  • Whisk together with a fork or small whisker until emulgated.
  • Dressing is enough for about 16-20 cups lettuce. Use some toasted pumpkin seeds for topping.
  • NOTE: Instead of pumpkin seed oil you can try other specialty oils like toasted sesame seed oil or walnut oil. But you should start then with less than 1 teaspoon to evaluate the flavour.
