The other night my sister brought over a spinach salad that had such a delicious dressing I had to share it with you. If you still have spinach and lettuce coming out of your ears from your garden, this dressing is a delicious poppyseed dressing that is different than the old standard creamy one. The paprika and worcestershire sauce in this dressing is what makes it have a unique flavor that goes perfectly with any type of spinach or lettuce salad. Tonight for dinner I just threw together a spinach salad with feta and candied walnuts. Nothing fancy but with this dressing it was even better than the main dish–even the kids thought so 😉


- 3/4 c. sugar
- 1/2 c. white vinegar
- 1/2 c. oil
- 2 T. poppyseed
- 2 T. sesame seeds
- 1 T. dried minced onion
- 1 t. paprika
- 1 T. worcestershire sauce
- Add all of the ingredients together and blend until mixed thoroughly. Leave in the fridge for up to two weeks.
Mmmm… Looks & sounds so good! Can't wait to try it!
You use sesame seeds a lot. Do you buy them in bulk somewhere?
You are right, I sure do use a lot of sesame seeds. I have heard that Winco's sell them in bulk and that is probably the least expensive place. Because I don't have one close to me, our Macey's sells a pretty good size no-name brand jar of them for only .99. I buy several of them so I always have them on hand. For now, those are the ones I use until a Winco comes closer to me 😉 Also..the seeds don't really have a lot of flavor so they are more in dressing recipes for texture and looks, so feel free to half the amount of seeds and you will be fine.
