on Monday, for my dear house guests, I made a new recipe for dinner (do you ever do that? new recipe for company?) -one from a favorite cooking magazine with all the best ingredients: couscous, asparagus, chicken, lemon juice. . .the dish was fine- maybe next time I'll tweek it just a bit, however, the best part of the meal was the salad- lettuce and radishes from the garden. . .and I dressed the salad with Naomi's Vinaigrette.
And later we ate leftovers, the main dish, cold with the vinaigrette-yu-um
Naomi's Vinagrette
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup vinegar (1/2 balsamic)
1/4 tsp sugar
1 tsp lemon juice
1-2 tsp salt
3/4 tsp pepper
3/4 tsp worchester sauce
2 tsp dijon mustard
pressed garlic
3/4 cup good olive oil, emulsified with whisk
mix all the ingredients in a bowl except for the olive oil; then add the oil in a slow steady stream, whisking continually until the oil is emulsified (or using the food processor, slowly pour in oil while machine is running.)
Enjoy!

mom - you are so high tech...'if you are using the food processor'...
love it.
this is Naomi's recipe? and it has worcester sauce? hmmm. it doesn't sound familiar. Is this a variation of her french dressing? which, by the way, is a dressing i LOVElovelove, and a recipe she gave me right before she left.
Naomi, we need your help!!
yeah! I'm glad you used it - - Rachel this one precedes the french dressing, and is a bit more complicated, so I don't make it as often .. . but I should make it again soon!
