Chef's Notes
This dressing can be made in advance and used to add flavor to ingredients such as tofu, tempeh, mushrooms and steamed vegetables.
Spicy greens also pair well with this dressing as the sweetness cuts through the spiciness of the vegetable.
Preparing the Dressing
First, gather and prepare your mise en place
In small bowl, whisk Dijon, vinegar, Fruit Paste, sweetener, shallot, garlic, tarragon and black pepper well. To thin, feel free to use a splash of orange juice or water. If using a jar of similar container, pour all ingredients into the container, close with lid and shake vigorously.
Use as a delicious dressing. Alternatively, pour over cooked asparagus, or potatoes with fresh capers and herbs.
