Almond Vinaigrette Dressing Food

ALMOND VINAIGRETTE DRESSING

Steps:

• Pour the vinegar into a large bowl with the salt and pepper. Beat with a small whisk until the salt has dissolved.
• Gradually beat in the olive oil until the dressing is well blended. Taste for sharpness. If the dressing is too sharp, beat in the water a little at a time until it suits your taste. Set aside.
• Dry roast the sliced almonds in a heavy frying pan until they have just started to take on a golden color and you can smell their delicious aroma. Take care not to over-toast them.
• While the almonds are still warm, tip half of them into the dressing. This will give the mixture a toasty taste. Reserve the rest to sprinkle on the salad greens. That's it! Try with Simple Steamed Asparagus or Steamed Green Beans.
