I love Panera Bread Strawberry Poppyseed Salad. Every summer, they bring this popular salad back. I am trying to make this salad at home.
The secret to this fabulous salad is its salad dressing. I have searched online for copycat recipes and come up with this:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/8 cup vinegar
1 tbsp poppyseed
2 tbsp sugar
I tried not to put in so much sugar in it but the vinegar really makes it sour. I may cut down on vinegar next time. But the dressing comes pretty close to the one at Panera.
Heyy, I love your blog... and this salad is delicious! My grandad is italian and he loves to cook. He makes his own salad dressing by mixing mayonnaise, vinegar, a squeeze of lemon juice and a dash of olive oil and it is delicious... I bet if you added your poppy seeds to this dressing it would be a really tangy dressing! :)
ReplyDeleteI am always get the bottled dressing and first time making my own dressing. It is so simple and I like the fact that I could control how much sugar I put in. Thanks for visiting :)
DeleteThis salad looks so refreshing and tasty! I've never thought to combine berries with leaves and then have a mayo-based, vinegary dressing. Must try it one day :)
ReplyDeleteI always like the sweetness of berries with salads and this is my first time making my own dressing which is relatively simple. It is so refreshing. Hope you will try it one day.
DeleteThis looks delicious and I love the addition of the berries. Right now I have been obsessed with arugula! I know the flavor isn't for everyone since it is rather bold but I pair it with fresh mozzarella, tomato, a sweet vinaigrette, crushed or candied cashews and some mandarin oranges. I have been eating one every day for the past week lol.
