Poppyseed Salad Dressing

Report

Poppyseed Dressing is so much more than just a creamy dressing with poppyseed in it. The poppyseeds ada a beautiful nutty aroma, and can take an otherwise humble salad to new heights!

Notes

My favourite is to use it for Strawberry Salad: Baby spinach, sliced strawberry, feta and toasted nuts, as pictured in the post.
I find it too rich for just plain delicate leafy greens (Balsamic, French and Italian are perfect for plain green leaves), so tend to use it for salads with more than just leafy greens, like roasted vegetables. I also love it with salads with apple in it - for some reason, I feel like poppyseed dressing and apple is a perfect match!
