-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 pint raspberries (2 cups)
2 medium shallots -- chopped
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup raspberry vinegar
salt -- to taste
freshly ground pepper -- to taste
Place the raspberries, shallots, and mustard in the bowl of a food processor or in a blender. Puree for 45 seconds, until smooth. With the processor or blender running, slowly add the olive oil until a smooth emulsion is formed, about 30 seconds. Continue to puree for an additional
30 seconds. Add the vinegar, and combine well. Season with salt and pepper. If the dressing looks too thick; you may add a small amount of water or cranberry juice to thin it to the desired consistency.
Judi's notes: The author states that you may use frozen raspberries here if you want. This dressing keeps for up to 1 week in the refrigerator. Make sure you defrost frozen berries and drain it before using.
Strawberry variation: You may use fresh or frozen strawberries in place of the raspberries.
