Ingredient Notes
Fresh Berries – You can use strawberries, blackberries, raspberries and even blueberries. If combining a mixture of berries, I suggest making a good amount of them strawberries or raspberries. I often throw in a few blueberries, but I’ve never tried it with all blueberries. Vinegar and other seasonings- You’ll also need white wine vinegar, garlic, some onion, salt, pepper, canola oil, and poppy seeds. Honey – Or sugar, if you’re in a pinch. But really, honey because there’s something amazing about honey and fresh berries together. If you like things less sweet, you can start with 1/3 cup honey instead of the suggested 1/2 cup and add more to taste.
How To Make Berry Poppy Seed Vinaigrette
How long does this dressing last in the fridge? This dressing is best used in the first few days. You can keep using it as long as it tastes good! I have never saved it past about 1 week.
Serving Suggestions
This dressing was developed for this Grilled Chicken & Berry Salad but you could certainly build your own. Sweet, tangy dressings like this are especially delicious with spring greens, onions, fruit, bacon, and grilled meats in salads. Consider adding some Quick Candied Nuts. It would be delicious on this Autumn Harvest Salad or Blackberry & Pear Salad as well!
