1 teaspoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
⅓ – ½ cup grapeseed oil
INGREDIENTS FOR SALAD:
4 ½ cups (255 grams) mixed cabbage, finely shredded
2 small (105 grams) golden delicious apples, diced
2 small (100 grams) plums, pitted and sliced
½ small (35 grams) red onion, thinly sliced
⅓ cup (57 grams) hearts of palm, sliced
⅔ cup dill, finely chopped
½ cup dried cranberries
1 pinch black pepper, freshly ground
⅓ cup (50 grams) hazelnuts, raw, pre-toasted in a dry skillet
¼ cup creme fraiche (optional, not included in nutrient analysis)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Combine the shallot, egg, Dijon mustard, maple syrup and apple cider vinegar in a blender on medium speed.
- Pour the oil very slowly in a thin steady stream from a measuring cup while the blender is on medium speed.
- Increase the blender’s speed as the mixture thickens and you continue to pour the oil.
- Blend until you have added all the oil or until the mixture reaches the desired thickness. Set aside.
- Combine cabbage, apples, plums, red onion and hearts of palm in a large mixing bowl.
- Add the dill, freshly made mayonnaise, dried cranberries, black pepper and creme fraiche (if using). Mix thoroughly.
- Transfer to a large serving bowl and top with chopped hazelnuts before serving.
Cooking Tip
Creme fraiche is optional but contributes a wonderful creaminess and tangy flavor to the salad. For a similar effect, you may use sour cream or Greek yogurt in its place.
