Cranberry Vinaigrettesalad Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk vinegar, cranberries, sugar, mustard, salt, garlic, and pepper together in a bowl until the sugar and salt are completely dissolved. Stream oil into the mixture while whisking continually; continue whisking until the oil emulsifies into the vinegar.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Arrange almonds in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast in oven for 5 minutes, or until nuts begin to brown.
• In a blender or food processor, combine the vinegar, oil, cranberries, mustard, garlic, salt, pepper, and water. Process until smooth.
• In a large bowl, toss the almonds, onion, blue cheese, and greens with the vinegar mixture until evenly coated.

Steps:

• In a blender, combine the first six ingredients. Cover and process for 1 minute. While processing, gradually add oil in a steady stream. Stir in poppy seeds. Store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Start by making a simple syrup: dissolve the sugar in the water in a medium saucepan. Add vanilla beans and bring to a simmer. Add the orange juice and cranberries, a dash of salt and some freshly ground black pepper, to taste. Simmer until cranberries begin to pop and become tender, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in Dijon mustard. Chill cranberry sauce until ready to serve. The sauce can be made up to 2 days ahead of time. Just before serving, garnish sauce with freshly grated orange zest.

Steps:

• In a blender, whisk egg white, mustard, lemon juice and red wine vinegar until frothy.
• While blender is still running, slowly pour in the cranberry concentrate, allowing it to infuse gradually into the egg white mixture.
• Mix the two oils together in a small bowl, and let it gradually stream into the blender, continuing to whisk until the dressing has emulsified, and has thickened.
• Turn off the blender at this point, and pour dressing into a large bowl. Stir in the dill and add the salt, pepper and sugar to your liking. You might like yours sweeter or more tart than mine, so I'll leave the amounts up to you.
• If using it on broiled Salmon, you can marinate the fish for 20-30 minutes before broiling or brush it on the fish in the final minutes of grilling.

Steps:

• In a blender, whisk egg white, mustard, lemon juice, and red wine vinegar.
• While blender is still running, slowly infuse the cranberry concentrate into the mix by pouring it in a thin stream.
• Keep the blender running as you add both the olive and canola oils the same way you added the cranberry, until the oils are completely emulsified and the dressing starts to thicken.
• At this point, turn off blender, and pour the dressing into a bowl. Stir in the dill, and season the dressing with salt, pepper and sugar to your liking. I did not specify the amounts, because some like it sweet, and some like it tart.
• Use it to marinade salmon before broiling, or brush it over grilled salmon. Or use it over your favorite tossed greens--especially good during the holiday season.
• Note: To make it really bright in color, add a couple of drops of red food coloring--WOW!

Steps:

• In a blender, combine the cranberries, orange, sugar, vinegar, salt, mustard and onion. While processing, gradually add oil in a steady stream. Refrigerate.
