People may think you’re crazy for putting a vinaigrette on chopped up hard boiled eggs but I can assure you this dressing is so good. It’s been nearly a year (my, my how time flies) since my friend Chef Taffiny Elrod came to visit me here in Portland and wow oh wow, have things changed since then. When we arrived at our destination restaurant for dinner I was given a goodie (swag) bag of stuff and included in that bag there was a bottle of hazelnut oil. Everything in my bag had long ago been consumed except for that danged hazelnut oil. I tasted it and promptly put in the refrigerator until… Now, I am embarrassed to say that though I live in Oregon which is the hazelnut capital of the country, and though I love hazelnuts, I had never had hazelnut oil. It has its’ own very distinct, delicious, lovely, and unusual flavor and for some reason it is really good as a salad dressing and especially with eggs.

So, if you do make keto hazelnut oil vinaigrette, you and your family are in for a super duper treat. I hope after you have tried it you will think it’s as good as I do. Almost goes without say that it makes one terrific salad dressing and, especially salads with hard boiled eggs on top.

Recipe will serve up to 10 so you may have some left for another day to serve it over wilted green onions with…what else…chopped up hard boiled eggs.

Keto Sherry Wine Vinaigrette

If you don’t know much about cooking or how to make a simple salad dressing,  you can make this. It is an easy emulsion dressing with all the flavor in the world and takes 10 minutes to do.  Keto sherry wine vinaigrette will need a bit of time to marry the flavors but that’s just time sitting on your kitchen counter and no, it does not need refrigeration and you can be doing other things while all this magic happens.

I have shown and used both the sherry and red wine vinegar because I think they make a good combo.  The sherry is much more mellow than any vinegar would be, but you also need a bit of vinegar for bite.  Wait until you taste this…you’ll see what I mean.
