Chef Eberhard Müller’s Citrus Vinaigrette

For the last year or so, the only salad dressing you have been using is that bottle of low-fat ranch. So what if it tastes like cardboard?

Lucky for you (and your tastebuds) the tides are about to turn. This citrus vinaigrette has a beautiful flavor that will dress up any salad.

Thank you to Chef Eberhard Müller (Bayard’s, Lutèce and Le Bernardin) for sharing this recipe with me on Friday during a recent visit to his farm which he owns with his beautiful and talented wife Paulette Satur.

Now, slowly put that low-fat bottle of ranch vinaigrette down…and dig into this…

  • Wonderful, Noelle! Thanks for getting the recipe from Eberhard. I remembered him saying everything but the olive oil, but you've filled in the missing ingredient in my memory. Thank you!
