Ingredients
- ½ cup honey, or granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons dry mustard, or 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
- ½ cup white wine vinegar, or apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup canola oil, or vegetable oil, or light olive oil
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
- ¼ cup minced shallots, or red onion (or 2 teaspoons onion powder)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk the honey, salt, dry mustard and white wine vinegar together. Slowly drizzle in the oil and whisk as you add it to the other ingredients.
- Stir in the poppy seeds and minced onions.
- If you prefer, you can blend all of the ingredients together in a blender, except the poppy seeds. Stir in the poppy seeds before serving.
Notes
- To make a creamy poppy seed dressing, substitute the cup of oil in this recipe with a cup of mayo.
- Store the poppy seed dressing in the fridge in an airtight container with a lid, for up to 3 weeks. It’s natural for the dressing to separate as it sits in the refrigerator. Give it a good shake before using it in a recipe.
- As written, this salad dressing recipe is naturally gluten-free and dairy free. To make it vegan, use granulated sugar instead of honey.
