Sweet And Sour Cherry Waldorf

• Cherry Dressing
• 1 ounce champagne vinegar or pear-infused vinegar
• 2 ounces EVOO (extra virgin olive oil), grapeseed, or walnut oil
• 1 tablespoon acacia honey
• 1 tablespoon homemade cherry or pear preserve (or excellent fruit jam not overly sweetened)
• add the reserve juice from pitting cherries
• 1/4 teaspoon dijon mustard
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon celery seed
• 1 fresh spearmint leaf, chiffonade then chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• zest of lemon
• Cherry Waldorf Salad
• 1/4 cup finely shredded green cabbage
• 1/4 cup finely shredded red cabbage
• 1/2 cup pitted sweet fresh red cherries, chopped
• 1 small green apple, grated
• 1/2 Asian pear, chopped (store the other half in orange juice for a later use if needed)
• the juice of a lemon
• 1/8 cup chopped red onion
• 1/4 teaspoon celery seed
• 2 tablespoons chopped toasted walnuts, almonds, cashews, or pinion pine)
• 2 ounces crumpled feta cheese
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves
• 1 tablespoon chopped flat leaf parsley
• slice of lemon and sprig of mint for garnish

1. Mix the dressing ingredients and shake gently before serving. I suggest 2-3 tablespoons per single serving of salad. This lasts for 2 servings for me.
2. Pour the lemon juice over the chopped pear and apple right after it is grated.
3. Assemble the salad ingredients, reserving the mint and parsley. Toss gently with 2-3 tablespoons of the dressing, to your taste. Top with the fresh chopped herbs. Garnish with lemon and mint. Serve as a salad or on top of roast chicken or pork in sandwiches.
