Very nice! I love tomatoes and fresh dressings and so this sounded appealing. I dispensed with trying to measure the oil off of the jar of sundried tomatoes and just dumped the entire 8 oz jar of sundried tomatoes into the blender and then played fast and loose with adding more extra virgin olive oil and balsamic to taste and to get the right consistency. Tasty fresh tomatoes are not to be found in the Pacific NW in February, so I like to halve Roma tomatoes, oven roast them and keep a stash in the freezer. I added a few slices of those tomatoes to this recipe and a pinch of salt. It will go on a green salad for dinner tonight. I’m already thinking of how to incorporate it into other dishes. I may add herbs or minced garlic to some of it eventually, but wanted to stay close to the recipe to try it out. I think something made with corn would be wonderful with this, too. Served alongside grilled kebobs? Thank you for the inspiration and I look forward to enjoying this dressing often and sharing with friends. Mary
Thank you, Mary. I hope you enjoy your dressing!
This is easy and delicious. I just had to add some extra oil to make it into a dressing because it was quite thick. I also added some Italian seasoning. Great on chopped salad and I’m thinking about making some extra dressing to marinate chicken breasts in!
Jan, the vinaigrette should have the consistency as shown in my photos. There are several reasons the vinaigrette could be too thick. The tomatoes were dry packed and not packed in oil. The tomatoes were not blended long enough to release the oil from them. Maybe the tomatoes, if packed in oil, did not have the full 1/2 cup of oil from the tomatoes. I hope this helps and I’m happy you found the vinaigrette delicious.
Sun dried tomatoes in oil are expensive and this recipe wasn’t worth it. I made it and it was average. Won’t make it again.
I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy the vinaigrette, Fay. It’s always full of delicious flavor when I make it. I can’t be sure, but it could have something to do with the balsamic vinegar you used. They vary so much and some of them don’t have as good of a flavor as others. Thanks!
I could eat sun dried tomatoes in oil like a snack. Can’t wait to try this on my salad!
Oh my gosh how much do I love this? Sounds so delicious!!
Love this! So simple and so pretty!
We always have these ingredients on hand, and we LOVE sundrieds, so we’ll definitely be making this next salad night!
Love the combo, Robyn. Perfect for summer entertaining! 🙂
I love sundried tomatoes so I am all over this!
I adore sun dried tomatoes – I need this!!!
