Strawberry Vinaigrette Recipe

Strawberry vinaigrette is sweet from strawberries, sour from vinegar, spicy from chili flakes and garlic, emulsified with olive oil and fabulous!

Strawberry Season

When strawberry season finally arrives after a long cold winter of zero fresh fruits, I want strawberries in everything I can possibly get them in!

Just up the street from me is a strawberry farm that lays quietly with black tarp over the sleeping strawberry fields during the winter months. When that tarp comes off, my kitchen is in full swing for my own little strawberry festival of flavors!

Strawberry Vinaigrette

How about a fast salad dressing that is sure to elevate any salad you drizzle it over! If you can’t think of a salad you would make to enjoy strawberry vinaigrette, by all means make this Strawberry Salad with spinach, feta, strawberries and either bacon or smoked salmon!

Fresh strawberries pureed with garlic, chili flakes, white balsamic vinegar, olive oil rosemary and sea salt. The vinaigrette will last one week in the fridge, so don’t be shy, make a jar full for the entire week of fabulous salads!

How To Make Strawberry Vinaigrette

In the blender or food processor, toss a handful of washed and stemmed strawberries, white balsamic or even apple cider vinegar, garlic, chili flakes, yes chili flakes to elevate this vinaigrette with a little heat, salt and fresh herbs, while the machine is running, pour in a little olive oil to emulsify the mixture and you have a fabulous salad dressing!

I am all about the gratification of the senses, and so I have become passionate about capturing the stimuli for my senses through videography and photography. Food provides some of the most alluring subject matter to capture on film, and videography does what a still shot can not do: capture sound. When you hear something sizzling, or pouring, your taste buds and sense of smell are already engaged.

I believe the table... that place that draws people to gather, is the most powerful symbol of togetherness. All that happens before the table is set, the planning, the gathering, the preparing, are all an intricate part of the dance that create the mood of celebration to share with friends and loved ones.
