We love a nice side salad to compliment any barbecued meal and Raspberry Walnut Vinaigrette is often one of our go to salad dressing recipes.   The coolness of a crisp salad with a fresh raspberry walnut vinaigrette is a great addition to almost any grilled meal.    See Sally’s recipe below for a delicious, quick and easy homemade dressing.

Ingredients:

• ½ cup Dijon Mustard
• ½ cup Sugar
• 1 cup good Raspberry Vinegar, such as Kozlowski Farms
• ½ cup Rice Vinegar
• Kosher or sea salt,  start with a good pinch
• Freshly Ground Black Pepper, several grinds
• 1 ½ cups Canola or Grapeseed oil
• ½ cup good Walnut oil, such as La Tourangelle

Recipe Instructions:

• Combine first 6 ingredients and whisk until smooth. Do not add the oils yet.
• While whisking, slowly drizzle the oils into the vinegar mixture to blend & emulsify.
• Re-season with salt and pepper to taste.  Makes about 4 ¼ cups.  Shake or stir before using.
