Vidalia Honey Mustard Dressing Recipes

HONEY MUSTARD DRESSING (BETTER THAN STORE-BOUGHT)

Steps:

• Combine the mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the black pepper and whisk until well blended and creamy. Whisk in the oil, and then taste the dressing. Adjust with additional salt, vinegar, or honey. I enjoy my dressing to taste more tart, so I typically add an extra tablespoon of vinegar.
• Alternatively, add all ingredients to a medium mason jar, secure the lid, and shake until blended.
• Keep tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to three weeks.

OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN-ON-A-STICK WITH VIDALIA-HONEY MUSTARD DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the salt, 1 teaspoon of the paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of the onion powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of the garlic powder. Add the buttermilk and whisk until the salt is completely dissolved and the spices are dispersed in the liquid.
• Cut the chicken lengthwise into about 1-inch-wide strips. Add to the marinade and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. (Do not marinate any longer or the chicken will be too salty. If you can't cook it right at the 30-minute mark, remove the chicken from the marinade and refrigerate until ready to continue.)
• In a large shallow dish (a 9 by 13-inch baking dish works well), combine the bread crumbs, the remaining 1 teaspoon paprika, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of the garlic powder. Add the 2 tablespoons oil and toss well to coat. Whisk together the egg whites and mustard in a second large shallow dish. Season both mixtures with pepper.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, then set an ovenproof rack on it. Coat the rack with nonstick cooking spray.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade, shaking off any excess, and thread onto sixteen 12-inch bamboo skewers, dividing the meat evenly, about 1 strip per skewer. Dip the chicken into the egg mixture, coating both sides. Place in the bread crumb mixture one skewer at a time, sprinkle with crumbs to cover, and press so the coating adheres to both sides. Gently shake off any excess crumbs and place the skewers on the prepared rack.
• Bake the chicken, turning halfway through, until golden brown and the juices run clear, about 25 minutes. Serve warm with the dipping sauce.
• Put the vinegar, onion, garlic, honey, and mustard in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Pulse until smooth. With the motor running, add the oil in a slow steady stream until thick and emulsified. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

VIDALIA ONION RINGS WITH BEER MUSTARD

Steps:

• Slice the onions.
• Cut each onion crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Separate the slices into individual rings; remove the 4 small center rings from each slice and reserve them for another use.
• Soak the onions.
• Put the separated onion rings into a large baking dish or shallow bowl and cover them with the buttermilk.
• Make the beer mustard.
• In a small bowl, whisk the aioli, dijon mustard, agave syrup, cinnamon, beer-extract powder and cayenne until combined. Set aside.
• Make the batter.
• In a large bowl, whisk 1 cup all-purpose flour, the rice flour, seltzer, beer and honey until smooth. Put the remaining 2 cups all-purpose flour in a separate large bowl or shallow pan and season it generously with kosher salt.
• Fry the onion rings.
• Fill a large heavy pot with at least 3 inches of vegetable oil. Attach a deep-fry thermometer to the side of the pot and heat the oil over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F.
• Working in batches, lift the onion rings from the buttermilk and shake off the excess. Transfer them to the flour mixture and toss until coated, then dip one by one into the beer batter, shaking off the excess, and add to the hot oil.
• Fry, turning the onions often with tongs, until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes; adjust the heat as necessary to maintain the oil temperature.
• Drain and serve.
• Drain the onion rings on paper towels and sprinkle with parsley and flaky salt while still warm. Serve with the beer mustard.
