Instructions
- Fresh ginger is the secret to the taste of this vinaigrette. Ginger is a root herb that can be bought at any food store. It can also be bought ground or dried, they won't work for this vinaigrette because the taste just isn't there. To prepare the ginger just peel it with a paring knife and chip into small pieces that will blend. Do not drain the oranges; a lot of flavor is in the liquid.
- Twist: This vinaigrette is excellent on a salad of shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, raisins, some kind of nuts, green onions and grilled diced chicken all tossed with the vinaigrette. For a little extra kick, add some crushed red chilies, habaneras, cayenne pepper or jalapenos. Combine everything and blend well. Add the olive oil and blend well again.
