Pecan Garlic Salad Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together first five ingredients. Slowly add olive oil while whisking constantly. Stir in pecans just before serving.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk the sour cream, mayonnaise, milk and sugar. Stir in the onions, garlic, salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in food processor and process until mixture is smooth.
• Chill before serving; makes enough to dress one large salad.
• I recommend a salad of romaine lettuce, orange slices (fresh or tinned mandarins), sliced green onions and perhaps some thinly sliced raw mushrooms.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees with racks in upper and lower thirds. Brush a 3-quart baking dish with butter.
• Spread bread cubes onto two rimmed baking sheets. Toast in oven until dry and golden in places, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool completely, then transfer to a large bowl.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium. Add onion, celery, and garlic; season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in cranberries and rosemary; cook 30 seconds. Add wine and boil until almost evaporated, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Transfer onion mixture to bowl with bread. Toss with pecans, parsley, and broth, adding more broth as needed until bread is evenly moistened but not soggy. Fold in eggs; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to prepared baking dish and cover with parchment-lined foil.
• Bake in upper third of oven 20 minutes. Uncover and continue baking until crisp on top and browned in places, 20 to 25 minutes more.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Toss oil with garlic in small baking dish. Cover dish tightly with foil. Bake until garlic is golden and tender, about 45 minutes. Cool. Squeeze garlic from skins. Reserve oil.
• Transfer roasted garlic to processor. Add honey, vinegar, cider and mustard and blend well. With processor running, slowly add reserved garlic oil. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper.
• Toss lettuce with 1/2 cup Gorgonzola cheese and enough dressing to coat. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese and Spiced Pecans and serve.
