    Tips & Variations

    • Add more apple cider vinegar (about 1-2 tablespoon extra if you like the taste). It may taste very strong when you taste-tested but once added to the salad it all comes together and balances the flavors.
    • Sweetener - Sugar or sweetener is optional in this recipe but it creates a good balance between sour, salty and sweet. I usually try to avoid granulated white sugar and love to use muscovado or coconut sugar instead, not only it is a healthier choice but thanks to the texture, it dissolves in the food or drinks much better. The food simply tastes better with a light caramel flavor (depends on the amount you’ll be adding of course). Alternatively add your favorite sweetener, stevia, honey, agave syrup, maple syrup, or else. 
    • Don’t throw away the strawberry tops! Here’s what you can do:

    DIFFERENT WAYS TO USE STRAWBERRY TOPS

    Always save strawberry tops - don’t throw them away! Here's what you can make with them:

    • Make strawberry-infused water.
    • Don’t have a plan to use those tops right now? Place them in an airtight container and keep them in the fridge for up to a few days, or in the freezer for a few months, then pull them out when you’re ready to use them. 
    • Another great way to use them is to infuse your favorite spirit with them (i usually keep them in my rum for few days).
    • Add the tops to your favorite smoothies to get a little pink hue and hint of strawberries.

    Where to use Strawberry Vinaigrette

    Well, this Strawberry Poppy Seed Salad Dressing is perfect not only for salads but for many other dishes as well.

    Here are few of my tried and favorite foods to enjoy with the creamy dressing:

    • Fresh green salads of any kinds
    • Summer Berry salads
    • Roasted vegetables like carrot, Brussel sprouts, beetroot, bell peppers, zucchini, broccoli
    • Avocado
    • In a combination of a variety of cheeses like cream cheese, feta, goat, and cheddar cheeses
    • Fruits like apples, pears
