HOMEMADE BLUEBERRY VINAIGRETTE
(from kylerhea’s recipe box)
“KITCHEN NOTES
The inspiring recipe suggests straining the seeds out but I didn’t find that necessary.
After resting a few minutes, the dressing becomes quite viscous, almost jelly-like. I started with just two tablespoons of olive oil but in order to pour, was forced to add more oil than was needed for (my) taste. To limit calories and fat grams, next time I’ll use fruit juice rather than more oil.
For aesthetics, I’d also recommend drizzling the dressing over top (or better yet, drizzled from a squeeze bottle) since tossing the greens in the dressing creates a muddy look. "
