Dressings and sauces
Feb 16, 2026
Here are some dressings I keep on rotation:
Chipotle Mayonnaise
1 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup olive oil
1 large egg, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Juice of 1 llime
2-3 canned chipotle peppers depending how spicy you want it
- In a quart-mason jar place the olive oil, egg, mustard powder and salt
- Mix thoroughly with an immersion blender on medium-high setting.
- While mixing, drizzle the vegetable oil slowly. The slower you drizzle it, the thicker the mayonnaise will be.
- After the mixture has emulsified, add the lime and chipotle peppers and mix on low to incorporate
- If you're planning on drizzling it, add water little by little at the end until it reaches the consistency you are looking for
Apple cider vinegar dressing
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Black pepper
- With immersion blender, blend the vinegar, honey, garlic, mustard, salt and pepper
- Slowly drizzle the olive oil while blending until the dressing it emulsified
Creamy cilantro dressing
1 cup cilantro
1/2 cup yogurt
1 garlic clove
1/4 cup olive oil
4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
Salt and Pepper
Blend everything together and voila!
