Almond Raspberry Vinaigrette Recipes

ALMOND VINAIGRETTE DRESSING

Steps:

• Pour the vinegar into a large bowl with the salt and pepper. Beat with a small whisk until the salt has dissolved.
• Gradually beat in the olive oil until the dressing is well blended. Taste for sharpness. If the dressing is too sharp, beat in the water a little at a time until it suits your taste. Set aside.
• Dry roast the sliced almonds in a heavy frying pan until they have just started to take on a golden color and you can smell their delicious aroma. Take care not to over-toast them.
• While the almonds are still warm, tip half of them into the dressing. This will give the mixture a toasty taste. Reserve the rest to sprinkle on the salad greens. That's it! Try with Simple Steamed Asparagus or Steamed Green Beans.

RASPBERRY ALMOND TART

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cut a 3/4-inch wide strip off each side of the pastry and reserve. Roll out the pastry sheet on a lightly floured work surface to a 10-inch square. Brush the edges of the square with the egg. Working with 1 strip at a time, stand the strips along the edges of the pastry square and crimp where they meet. You want to create a shallow box, where the pastry square is the base and the 4 strips are the walls. Overlap the strips at the corners, stretching them if necessary to complete the walls of the box. Brush the border with the egg. Pierce the center of the pastry all over with fork. Bake until the pastry is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack and cool completely.
• Using an electric mixer, beat the cream until soft peaks. With the mixer still running, gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks. Add the liqueur and beat until just well blended; be careful not to overmix or the whipped cream will turn into a buttery consistency and start to separate. Using a large spatula, fold in the nuts. Spoon the cream mixture into the prepared pastry crust. Arrange the berries over the cream. Sift the cocoa powder over and serve.
• NOTE: You can use any fruit that's in season (orange segments, berries, plums, bananas, grapes). Blueberries make a good substitute for the raspberries, and sliced peaches or nectarines are delicious as well.
