Clementine Ginger Salad Dressing
Description
Clementine Ginger Salad Dressing starts by pureeing rice vinegar, grated clementine zest, fresh clementine juice, honey, roughly chopped ginger, garlic, coriander, salt, and black pepper. The mixture is blended until fully combined and then extra virgin olive oil is slowly drizzled in to emulsify the dressing, producing a silky texture. The citrus and ginger provide bright, zesty notes with a warm aromatic edge.
This dressing suits a variety of greens or grain salads, offering a mix of sweet, tart, and slightly spicy layers that bring freshness and complexity. The finely grated clementine zest enhances citrus aroma and the honey balances the acidity of the vinegar and citrus juice.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- clementine finely grated zest of two
- 3 tablespoons clementine juice about 2 clementines, fresh
- 2 ½ tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon ginger fresh, roughly chopped
- 1 garlic peeled, medium clove
- ½ teaspoon Coriander
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients except olive oil in a blender container. Mix on medium speed until smooth.
- With blender running, slowly drizzle in olive oil. To prevent dressing from spattering all over, cover the top of the blender with plastic wrap. Push down on plastic wrap so it droops a bit then place lid on blender with center cap removed. Take a wooden skewer or toothpick and poke several holes in plastic wrap. Slowly drizzle oil through opening in blender cover onto plastic wrap. Oil will seep through the holes. When all oil has been incorporated, remove blender cap and plastic wrap and transfer dressing to a storage container. Taste and season if needed with more salt and freshly ground pepper.
