Avocado and Orange Salad with Honey and Ginger Dressing
There is a previous version
Ingredients:
1 can Mandarin Orange Slices
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh ginger
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons honey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 medium shallot, finely chopped
1 to 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 avocado
Procedures:
Combine the ginger, mayonnaise, mustard, and honey with the orange juice in a small bowl. Add the chopped shallots. Whisk in the olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Cut the avocados lengthwise up to the large pit in the middle. Gently twist apart the 2 halves and remove the pit. Wedge a teaspoon between the skin and the flesh and remove the flesh in 1 piece. Cut the avocados into 1-inch pieces and put them into the bowl with the honey-and-ginger dressing. Chill and serve with a slotted spoon.
Notes:
2021-12-12: Too wet. Reduce the amount of juice from the orange slices and make earlier in the day to allow the flavors to meld and the shallots to soften.
2020-10-13: I used 3 tablespoons of Emeril’s Honey Mustard with no additional honey. There was no orange juice, so I used the syrup from the orange slices. The avocado will be added later as it was on the older side of fresh.
2019-12-29: Changed the recipe and produced an excellent results.
