- 1/4 to 1/3 cup honey
- 1/3 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup vinegar
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup oil
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
This can be prepared in a bowl, using a
whisk, or in the blender. To use a bowl,
first combine the honey and ketchup in a
bowl, with a wire whisk. Add the vinegar,
onion powder and salt. Mix very well. Add
the oil, a little at a time. Mix the oil all
the way into the ketchup mixture before
adding more. I add about 3 tablespoons of
oil at a time, mix it in all the way, and
add about 3 more. When the oil is completely
mixed in, stir in the poppy seeds. This
dressing may also be prepared in the
blender. First combine the honey, ketchup,
vinegar, onion and salt in the blender,
whirling until smooth. Then, with the
blender still running, slowly add the oil in
a narrow stream. Continue blending until it
is emulsified and smooth. Lastly stir in the
poppy seeds. Store this dressing in a
pint-sized container in the fridge. It
tastes best when allowed to sit overnight,
but is still good when used right after
preparing.
