I recently made this Spinach Salad from The Plantation Cookbook. The salad dressing is absolutely spectacular. The key is to make the dressing at least 6 hours ahead or the day before.

I forgot about this salad. I will make it again soon!

I made this last night. Delicious!! I mixed it in a food processor, though if you microplaned the garlic, you probably wouldn’t have to. I thought the flavor of the dressing was great right away. The only difference I noticed six hours later was that it had thickened quite a bit. A little goes a long way on this. I didn’t even use half the dressing for a big salad.

Fixed this for Christmas Eve dinner. It is fabulous. I used grapeseed oil. And…it does have to sit for six hours to come together.

This salad is really wonderful. I recall that the garlic was microplaned which worked really well. Laissez les bon temps rouler!
