Lime-cumin vinaigrette

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 Clove garlic
2 tablespoons Lime juice
Salt
cup Olive oil
2 tablespoons Scallions; chopped
½ small Jalapeno; seeded and minced
½ teaspoon Cumin seed
½ teaspoon Coriander seed
½ teaspoon Dry mustard
2 tablespoons Cilantro; chopped

Directions

Pound the garlic with ⅛ teaspoon salt in a mortar until smooth (or put it through a press), then combine it in a bowl with the lime zest, juice, scallion, and chile. Toast the cumin and coriander seeds in a small dry skillet until fragrant, then immediately remove them to a plate to cool.

Grind to a powder in a spice mill, then add them to the juice mixture.

Whisk in the mustard and the oil. Taste and adjust balance as need. Let the dressing stand for at least 15 minutes; add the cilantro just before using.
