Ingredients
Scale
2 dates, pitted
3/4 cup hot water
1/2 cup pecans
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Soak pitted dates in ¾ cup hot water. Let sit for at least 5 minutes to soften.
- Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Add pecans and warm for 1 to 2 minutes, carefully shaking the nuts around in the skillet a few times so they don't burn. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Put all dates with soaking water, pecans and remaining ingredients into a high powered blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
- The vinaigrette will be a little warm, but trust me its yummy. You can store any unused dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
