The honey mustard really hits the spot! Just the right amount of sweetness. Any way we can get a General Tso sauce?
Just tried the vegan ranch dressing on kake & tomato salad. Just the right blend of tartness, sweetness and creaminess and no unnecessary extra sugars or oils. Homerun!
I made the honey mustard sauce and I love the taste and the creamy consistency! Thank you very much for the wonderful recipe. Greetings from Hamburg Germany Eva
I just got a large bag of raisins to use in making some of your other dressings. How would that compare to use for sweetness in this dressing instead of dates?
I would start with 3/4 cup raisins and add more if you want it sweeter. =)
Great thanks!
I only used 3 Medjool dates and the dressing satisfied a person in my family who has a sweet tooth. Because who wants to eat one Medjool date every time you have a salad. 3 medjool is plenty. Thank you so much Jill for this non nut based dressing.
This is amazing. I only used 6 dates because they were jumbos, but it’s perfect. So good!
Honey Mustard has been my “go to” dressing since I was a kid. Tried others, but always come back to Honey Mustard. I am very picky with my Honey Mustard dressing, but I thought I would just give this a try. Easy to make and way healthier than store bought…..most of all YUM! This is truly an excellent dressing….not runny, just the right amount of sweetness and tang. Jill…you are an amazing food scientist for sure and we appreciate your brilliance!!!
I also like how it thickens because then I use it as a sandwich spread. So tasty 😋
I just made this dressing and it was absolutely brilliant. I substituted apple cider vinegar and I used 1 cup of water as I wanted a thinner dressing and it turned out just awesome!!!! This dressing is a total game changer. Thank you!!!
Ok I’m back to add another review because I’ve made a couple of adjustments to this wonderful recipe to suit my palette. I followed the recipe as you’ve published it and then also added: a pinch of salt and 300g of silken tofu. The tofu is tasteless so blends in beautifully, it also makes the dressing even more creamy and bulks up the recipe so I can slather it on my salads over 4 days. Delicious!
About the chickpea flour – can I replace it with say buckwheat or oat one? Or any other suggestions if one is short od chickpea flour?
That is a good question. I haven’t tried any substitutes for this recipe. I would try either the buckwheat flour or maybe almond flour.
Can you use super seeds (chia, flax, and hemp hearts) instead of just hemp hearts?
Absolutely, although after a couple hours it may get super thick but you can just add a little water
