Sauces & Dressings - make a head and keep in a mason jar- shake it!
Lemon & Herb
Combine the juice of one lemon, 1 cup olive oil or another oil you like, 1 TBSP Gourmet Garden Italian Herb Stir-in-Paste and salt and pepper, a dash, a pinch, keep tasting until you like it. Garlic is a great add in option.
Cilantro-Lime
Combine the juice of one lime, 1 cup olive oil or another oil you like, Avocado oil would be tasty, 1 TBSP Gourmet Garden Cilantro Stir-in-Paste and salt and pepper, a dash, a pinch, keep tasting until you like it. This one is a great marinade for skirt steak and skirt steak goes great with my spinach chimichurri.
Asian-style Dressing/Marinade
Combine 1/4 cup fresh squeezed orange juice, 2 TBSP rice wine vinegar (or apple cider vinegar), 1/2 cup olive oil, 2 TBSP sesame oil and 1 TBSP Gourmet Garden Ginger Stir-in-Paste OR for more or a kick 1/2 TBSP fresh chopped ginger, 1 TBSP Gourmet Garden Chili Pepper Stir-in-Paste, a crushed and chopped clove of garlic, 1 TBSP soy sauce. Keep tasting until you like it. I like this tossed with chopped cabbage, chopped cashews, in an asian-inspired pork taco.
