Roasted Garlic Dressing image

This is a very versatile dressing that you can use on salads or on steamed veggies (asparagus and broccoli are good with this). Roasting the garlic makes it mellow and sweet. Adapted from a Moosewood recipe.

Time 25m

Yield 1 2/3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 -12 cloves garlic, unpeeled
1 cup olive oil (not extra virgin)
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • In an unoiled, small heavy skillet, roast the unpeeled garlic cloves on medium heat, turning them occasionally; cook the garlic for about 10-15 minutes, until it's soft and covered with dark spots.
  • Test for doneness by pressing a clove with a spoon- if you see small bubbles of juice bursting through the skin, remove them from the skillet.
  • When cool enough to handle, peel the cloves.
  • In a blender or food processor, puree the garlic with the oil, vinegar, water, salt, pepper and mustard until smooth.
  • covered and refrigerated, this dressing will keep for several weeks.
