I made an Old Bay Vinaigrette today. The inspiration for this dish came about because of a purchase from the deli counter at grocery store yesterday. There was a Chesapeake Turkey that was roasted in the store. This sounded very intriguing to me. So, I bought a pound of it. I had already planned on having chef salad at least one day this week for lunch and thought that an Old Bay Vinaigrette would be a nice complement to the meat. I did not really find a recipe for this online, but I did find some good information on how to
make a vinaigrette. I used this information to come up with my own recipe. With lent on the horizon I may try a salad with crab meat and/or shrimp with this vinaigrette.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2/3 cup Red Wine Vinegar
- Juice from 1/2 a lemon
- 1-2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Old Bay
Combine all ingredients in glass container (do not use aluminum) and mix with immersion (hand) blender. I am sure a food processor or regular blender could be used as well. Allow to sit at room temp for 1-3 hours.
