Notes
*Gala Apple: You can use any medium-sized sweet apple you like. We used a 7 oz. Gala apple (weight is before peeling and coring).
*Dijon Mustard/Vinegar/Ginger/Maple Syrup: Our family loved this dressing; however, we each had preferences over the multiple kitchen tests. Some preferred more Dijon mustard, while others liked more ginger and pops of vinegar tang. Others preferred more sweetness. This recipe is a great base to start. It is perfectly delicious as is in the recipe but can be customized to suit individual preferences.
*Sea Salt: Please adjust the sea salt based upon your family’s sea salt preferences and/or based upon dietary needs.
*Serving: Makes approximately 2/3 cup of dressing.
*Storage: Refrigerate and use within 5 days.
