Favorite Dressings or Marinades - Homemade OR Bottled!

[Lucinda]

Pinto mentioned a black olive marinade for asparagus that I'd never thought about, and I realized that I could really use some new ideas for marinades and salad dressings.

Have any favorites?

1. I once had a first-course salad that was FULL of baby vegetables and a house...

.
.
.
.... raspberry vinaigrette that was almost (almost) the best part of a
truly exceptional meal. Sadly, the restaurant closed before I thought
to ask for the ingredients.

4. I used

to make a real simple one that only
used like 3 ingredients.
Choice of oil , olive oil or regular veg oil, Vinegar either white balsamic or apple cider or there might be a rasberry vinegar and Seedless Rasberry preserves.
Blend or just whisk together .
For just myself I used maybe about
1 or 2? Tbsp. oil, 1/4 cup vinegar, and about 3 or 4 Tbsp of the preserves.
Could add a tiny bit of Dijon Mustard if you
want. S&P if you want.
I bet you could change it up by changing
the fruit in the preserves.. blueberry or blackberry maybe even strawberry

2. Something called pioneer's ketchup is great on chicken and such. You can find recipes online. I also

tried real plumb sauce, not the orange kind made with pumpkin, and it was yummy. All clear and found in the Asian food section of the grocery store. I'm trying to think of places I can use it.

3. Brianna's Poppy Seed Dressing, followed closely by...

Newman's Own Poppy Seed Dressing. They make salads worth eating.

And then there's Soy Vey's Very Very Teriyaki sauce.

5. The original 7 Sea's green goddess dressing

the stuff on the market these days is not the same, and homemade bleu cheese, with buttermilk, mayo-lite mayo, blue cheese and a bit of garlic and cracked black pepper

10. homemade green goddess is easy to whirl up in the blender

I posted the recipe I use here a long while ago. If you want me to find it, I will be happy to do so. It's from the mid-century Good Housekeeping cookbook, and is very good with crudites. Mmmm.

7. A quickie topping for broccoli, Brussels sprouts or cauliflower I really like -

Mayo with curry powder. I use the ones commonly stocked in the spice section at the market.

11. oh I love mayo/curry with chilled artichokes

And also with steamed veggies. A big plate of steamed veggies with curried mayo is a great supper, IMO.
