Blender Basil Dressing
Here is a recipe for a wonderful and easy-to-make basil dressing in your blender.
2 tablespoons Pinot Noir Wine vinegar2 tablespoons Traditional Balsamic Vinegar
4 to 5 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 cloves garlic, chopped
½ cup medium/bold extra virgin olive oil*
(Nevadillo Blanco, Picual or Favolosa)
½ teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Add the vinegars, basil, sugar, garlic, oils, salt, and pepper in a blender. Pulse the mixture, or mix it in short bursts so that the ingredients combine thoroughly and the basil do not get chopped too fine. A combination of butter lettuce, freshly shredded Parmesan cheese, marinated mushrooms, juicy red ripe tomatoes, and even some ripe wedges of avocado make for a delightfully superb salad. This recipe yields about a cup dressing.
