• Allow to stand in the fridge for 1 hour.
• Toss again to blend flavors well.
• Garnish with walnut halves, dried cranberries, and a sprig of fresh rosemary if desired.

SPRING LEMON AND ROSEMARY DRESSING

Steps:

• 1. In a medium pot, combine over low heat the olive oil and rosemary. Heat the oil to just short of bubbling. Remove from heat and set aside for at least 60 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, in the work bowl of a kitchen mixer or a hand-held mixer, combine the mustard, salt, black pepper, lemon zest and a tablespoon of lemon juice. 3. Begin whisking on slow setting. Slowly drizzle in about one-fourth cup of the olive oil. Whisk in two tablespoons of the lemon juice. Repeat, alternating oil and lemon juice (taste for balance as you go along). 4. When the olive oil and lemon juice are exhausted, drizzle in the canola oil, cutting it with a little red wine vinegar if more acid is needed. Taste for seasonings. 5. Use a funnel to transfer contents to a standard 750-milliliter bottle (or a Mason jar). Be sure to scrape in everything from the bottom of the bowl. Seal securely. (New screw-cap bottles are best for this.) Refrigerate. Remove 15 minutes before using. Shake well. Store in an airtight jar for a month.
