Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Fresh raspberries
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Place the fresh raspberries in a fine mesh strainer over a bowl. Using the back of a spoon, press the raspberries through the strainer to extract their juice and discard the seeds. You should yield about 1/2 cup raspberry puree.
In a blender or food processor, combine the raspberry puree, balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, water, salt, and ground black pepper.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and fully emulsified, about 30 seconds.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more maple syrup for sweetness or vinegar for tanginess.
Transfer the dressing to a jar or small airtight container. Shake well before each use, as natural separation may occur.
Serve over your favorite salad greens, roasted vegetables, or use as a dip for fresh veggies.
