Tips of the Trade

• Use strainer when juicing lemon to avoid seeds getting into your dressing

• Try toasting your pecans before adding to your salad, be careful those little babies can burn easily. 

• Put vinaigrette into a mason jar, it makes it easier to pour onto the salad and it allows the beautiful, blue color to shine on your table.
