Olinda, Funny that I have always loved poppyseed dressing but never make it myself. Maybe I never had a good recipe;) until now.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I've been meaning to ask if you ever use nutritional yeast in your cooking? I haven't done much with it other than sprinkle it over buttered popcorn. But is gives that wonderful cheesy taste, yet is gluten-free. Just a thought:)

Erin,
ReplyDeleteI haven't used nutritional yeast in cooking as yet. I really need to read up on it and experiment. I probably haven't used it because I sometimes have stomache problems with regular yeast. I don't know if they are similar but I need to give it a try. Thanks for the tip!
Oh, and everything in the Silver Palate Cookbook that I have tried has come out great. The story is, a couple of Jewish girls got together and put the book out. I have had it for years. Thus the kosher stuff inside. YUMMO.
