Rehfwitz Recipes

 ½ cup white sugar

· ½ cup lemon juice

· 2 teaspoons diced onion (I used shallots)

· 1 teaspoon Dijon-style prepared mustard

· ½ teaspoon salt

· 2/3 cup vegetable oil

· 1 tablespoon poppy seeds

· 1 head romaine lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces

· 4 ounces shredded swiss cheese

· 1 cup cashews

· ¼ cup dried cranberries

· 1 apple, peeled, cored and sliced

· 1 pear, peeled cored, and sliced

In a blender or food processor, combine sugar, lemon juice, onion, mustard, and salt. Process until well blended. With machine still running, add oil in a slow steady stream until mixture is thick and smooth. Add poppy seeds and process just a few seconds more to mix.

In a large serving bowl, combine the lettuce, cheese, cashews, cranberries, apple, and pear. Toss to mix then pour dressing over salad just before serving.
