Walnut Dressing
Recipe

I use best-quality walnut oils found in upscale markets and kitchen supply stores for this dressing. They pack an intense nutty flavor not found in the pale, bland supermarket varities.

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon crushed garlic
1 cup walnut oil*
1/2 teaspoon dried red chili flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
*Store all opened bottles of nut oils in the refrigerator or they will go rancid quickly.
Directions

1. Combine the vinegar, mustard, and garlic in a small mixing bowl.

2. Add the oil in a thin, steady stream while whiking the mixture vigorously.

3. Add the chili, salt, and pepper and whisk.
