CLASSIC ESSENTIALS: RUSSIAN DRESSING

Classic Essentials: Russian Dressing image

I hesitate to call this "classic" Russian dressing. Although it is classic, there are probably 50 more versions that are thought of as classic. With that said this is a good tasting dressing that would be happy drizzled over a bowl of fresh garden greens, as a condiment on a Ruben or Pastrami sandwich, and much more. I will be using this on some marbled rye Pastrami sandwiches tomorrow. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

PREP/PREPARE
You will need a bowl to whisk the ingredients together.
Is Russian Dressing Really Russian? Russian dressing has similar aspects to French dressing (which is not French), and Thousand Island dressing which does not come from the tropical islands. In the same respect Russian dressing is not Russian, it was probably invented by a gent named, James Colburn in 1910, who lived in Nashua, New Hampshire. The original recipe included caviar, which was a staple of Russian cuisine. The name caught on and survives to this day. And now you know the rest of the story.
Storage Of Homemade Condiments, Spices, and Sauces Because homemade spices and condiments do not contain any preservatives, it is important to store them properly. Non-reactive (glass) containers with tight-fitting lids are a must. If I am making a dry spice, I love to use old spice bottles that I have run through the dishwasher. If I am doing homemade sauces, I love using Weck jars. They are all glass, come in all sizes and shapes, and have excellent leakproof lids. If you shop online, you can go to Amazon, and type in "Weck Jars" and you will find a ton of them. Dry spices should be kept in a cool space, away from sunlight (spice cabinet), and sauces, in most cases, should be stored in the fridge. If properly stored, this dressing should last 8 - 10 days.
Homemade Mayonnaise To be sure, there are some good store-bought mayo's on the market (my all-time favorite is Duke's) If you live in the South, you have probably seen it on the shelves of your local grocer; however, as you travel North, it becomes as scarce as hen's teeth. If you would like to take a stab at making your own (it really is not all that difficult), check out this recipe: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/spread/mayonnaise-essentials-faux-duke-s-version.html?r=1 Homemade Worcestershire Looking for a good Worcestershire without anchovies, or all those chemical preservatives? It is easy/peasy to make and tastes like the real thing. So yummy. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/other-sauce-spread/diy-essentials-homemade-worcestershire-sauce.html?r=1
Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
This is easy/peasy. Add all the ingredients to a non-reactive bowl.
Whisk all the ingredients together, except the sweet relish.
Add the relish and fold into the dressing.
Add salt a bit at a time until you like what you taste.
Store, as suggested in step 4, until needed.
PLATE/PRESENT
Use anywhere you need a good Russian dressing. Enjoy.
Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

RUSSIAN DRESSING

Russian Dressing image

Russian dressing and Thousand Island are similar in that they are both creamy and salmon in color. However, Russian salad dressing is spicier with the addition of ingredients like horseradish and pepper sauce, while pickle relish gives Thousand Island a sweeter flavor. -Francine Lizotte, Surrey, British Columbia

Russian Dressing(Reuben Sauce) image

I was watching Diners, Drive Ins and Dives last night and they visited Waddels Pub and Grill in Spokane, Washington. They were making these Reuban sandwiches and the sauce looked so good, I have tried to recreate it. I have all the ingredients he listed and have been playing with measurements. This is what I came up with(I did add one extra ingredient). Enjoy!

As I write this, St. Patrick's Day is 71 days away (3/17); however, that does not stop my clients from putting in their orders for corned beef. Corned beef and cabbage is an awesome recipe, but one of my favorite ways to use this yummy beef is on a corned beef sandwich, and one of the things that takes this sandwich over the...

PLAN/PURCHASE
1/2 c mayonnaise, plain variety, i prefer duke's
1/4 c ketchup
2 Tbsp horseradish, not horseradish cream
1 Tbsp sugar, granulated variety
2 tsp worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp sweet paprika
salt, kosher variety, to taste
black pepper, freshly ground, to taste

Steps:

1. PREP/PREPARE
2.

Plus, since you're making it from scratch, you can vary the ingredients to suit the occasion. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/other-sauce-spread/versatile-homemade-ketchup.html?r=3 Homemade Worcestershire This recipe is another in my series of homemade sauces and condiments. The biggest missing element is this sauce is the elimination of anchovies. That one thing makes this sauce vegan... Vegan and very tasty. It is easy/peasy to make... So yummy. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/other-sauce-spread/diy-essentials-homemade-worcestershire-sauce.html?r=1
