SALAD DRESSINGS
Here are some great tips and uses for the dressings.
Any salad dressings can be used to make nori crackers. Just spread on top of the nori sheet and dehydrate.
Use any leftover salad dressing to marinate zucchini chips and dehydrate
Massage any dressing into kale or any other greens and dehydrate to make chips
Use the salad dressings to drizzle on top of your quinoa, amaranth, buckwheat
If you don’t know your salt preference start with a little and increase the perfect taste
Using ginger can be a new taste. The taste and intensity vary with the type of ginger you use. And how long it has been in the store. Add a little and work up.
Use herbal teas instead of water in your dressings to add a different twist.
