Notes
- To make a creamy poppy seed dressing, substitute the cup of oil in this recipe with a cup of mayo.
- Store the poppy seed dressing in the fridge in an airtight container with a lid, for up to 3 weeks. It’s natural for the dressing to separate as it sits in the refrigerator. Give it a good shake before using it in a recipe.
- As written, this salad dressing recipe is naturally gluten-free and dairy free. To make it vegan, use granulated sugar instead of honey.
