Anchovy-Feta Dressing

Anchovy-Feta Dressing

I couldn’t tell you the last time I bought salad dressing. My go-to is a nice bottle of olive oil used exclusively for dressings and either red vinegar, lemon or grapefruit juices. Often I’ll use dijon or tahini as an emulsifier.  Generally, I like my dressings light and simple so they don’t hide the delicious fresh vegetables.  That Kale Salad I made the other week though, that had me craving some creamy dressings.  For the best homemade dressings, I went to a local classic cookbook that I’m featuring a bit this week.

This Anchovy-Feta Salad Dressing comes from perhaps my most favorite cookbook, The Frog Commissary Cookbook. You can whip this up with a whisk and an intense upper body workout… or you could just use an immersion blender. Ingredients include; egg, oil, vinegar, lemon juice, salt, pepper, anchovies, and feta.
