Maple-Mustard Vinaigrette
We had friends bring us fresh razor clams and trout that they had freshly caught on Sunday–how lucky are we?!? I prepared some delicious razor clams & baked trout along with a mixed greens salad tossed with a tangy maple-mustard vinaigrette and some crusty bread. We all enjoyed the flavor combination, and it paired nicely with the rest of the meal.

I am currently obsessed with trying new recipes for dressings, so thank you! I love the mustard addition.
Wow looked different and interesting. Love your posts.
What a great dinner you had! This dressing sounds yummy and I love the sweet/sour combo.
I’ve been on a big homemade salad dressing kick. I’m trying just about anything and have loved pretty much all of them. I will definitely put this on my list of ones to try.
I appreciate a little sweetness in salad dressings more and more. This sounds delicious!
Great dressing. The seafood feast sounds great too!
What a great combination of flavors!
Must try it for my next summer salad:)
This sounds great! I really need to start making my own dressing instead of buying the bottled kind. Thank you for sharing such an easy recipe :).
Sounds deeeeelicous!
I love maple and mustard together! It’s one of my favorite dressing combos. Delicious!
there was a vinaigrette that jacques pepin made years ago, it was so good–I almost had the recipe memorized by heart.
then my computer crashes and I lose a lot of recipes, that being one of them.
this reminds me to start making it again.
spring/summer is when I crave these kinds of tastes.
This dressing sounds great. I bet it went great with the clams and trout.
Love the flavour combo of this salad dressing!
Sounds awesome! The only thing I have trouble with is Garlic’s representation in the picture, it is forever being bullied by the other ingredients. J/k – Great blog!
I love this idea. Honey mustard dressing is delicious but I never thought to use maple!
I love me some vinaigrette but I bet I use them more for marinades than I do on salads. Not that there’s anything wrong with that 😉
