Easy Poppyseed Dressing
I pretty much only make three salad dressings. My favorite ranch dressing, a strawberry vinaigrette, and this poppyseed dressing.
Bart’s sister made it shortly after we got married and I ate more salad that night than I had in the last three years combined.
And then I got the poppyseed dressing recipe and found out it was super easy to just throw everything in the blender and make myself in about two minutes.
It’s great on any type of sweeter salad, like this goat cheese and peach salad, or just a basic spinach/fruit/feta salad.
Done and done.

Ingredients
- 6 T white sugar
- 1/2 tsp dry mustard
- 1/2 tsp salt

Put all ingredients except oil and poppyseeds in a blender. Run the blender for a couple of seconds to combine everything.

Stores in fridge for about two weeks (although you may have to whisk it back together if it separates).
This sounds yummy. I will have to try it.
You might enjoy this recipe for Celery Seed Dressing that comes from my grandmother's best friend. I especially like it on Boston lettuce.

1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1 thin slice onion
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 teaspoon paprika

Your recipe and Elaine's sound wonderful. Thank you.
I wish you Happy New Year!
I love a good homemade dressing–and this doesn't made a ton at a time too, which is always nice. Can't wait to use it once we're home from holiday vacation!
LOVE Poppyseed dressing! That 6 T of sugar for one cup is a killer! Hope you and that baby are doing fantastic.
That 6T of sugar, does that mean 6 tablespoons or 6 teaspoons?
Tablespoons!
