There are two keys to a great salad: 1. fresh produce and 2. great dressing.
Try making these salad dressings at home and store them in the fridge for up to two weeks. They can be paired with your favorite in-season vegetables from our farmers’ market vendors. A couple of these recipes include the use of honey which can also be purchased at our farmers’ market.
Instructions for each recipe are the same: beat the ingredients together until well-mixed, or place in a jar and shake until emulsified. Then salt and pepper to taste, shaking again to mix.
