Roasted Garlic Salad Dressing

Boy oh boy did I ever love this roasted garlic salad dressing! Great roasted garlic flavor tamed by Dijon and honey. And not overly mustardy, either. That’s a good thing. For me, there is a such thing as too much mustard. I can’t do that ‘mustard pucker face’. And it has the perfect consistency. Not too thick that you need to cut it with a knife. Not too runny so that it just runs right off your salad.

Make Extra For Marinating

This roasted garlic salad dressing is also outstanding as a poultry marinade, specially for chicken destined for the grill. It is packed with flavor. Just place the chicken into a resealable container. Add enough of the dressing to cover the meat. Turn the chicken once to make sure the dressing covers it well. Seal and refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 2 hours. Before grilling or cooking shake off any excess marinade. Enjoy!

Roasted Garlic Dijon Salad Dressing

I would not call myself a mustard-aholic. It seems to depend on the day as to whether or not I’m all-in on a mustardy dressing or not. Fortunately, though, this roasted garlic Dijon salad dressing didn’t require that I be in the mood for mustard. It has just the right amount of mustard-ness. It’s slightly sweet with a hint of roasted garlic, one of my favorite flavors. And a little citrus to boot. It’s got everything, all in an easy-to-make dressing.

More Garlic is More Better

I’m quite the garlic fan, so I will double the amount in this recipe the next time I make it. I’m ok with it being up front in my roasted garlic Dijon salad dressing instead of just kind of hanging around with the other flavors.

No Need For Fancy Dijon

I used our local grocery store’s Dijon mustard. Nothing fancy. You can go fancy if you want, but I don’t think it’ll make a big difference as long as you’re using a mustard that you like to use in other recipes. It’s like cooking with wine. You don’t cook with a wine you don’t like. Don’t make a dressing with a mustard you don’t like either!
