1 tablespoon raspberry balsamic vinegar Ask a question about this ingredient
2 teaspoons honey Ask a question about this ingredient
2-3 teaspoons sugar Ask a question about this ingredient
Whisk olive oil, vinegar, sugar, honey, and salt and pepper, taste for sweetness. You might substitute the blood orange oil with blood orange juice added to some mild olive oil or maybe the mandarin orange juice. Make your salad either on individual chilled salad plates or in a big salad bowl. Dress and toss just before serving. I start with adding just about 1/2 of the dressing and add more if necessary.
