Haskap Red Wine Dressing

This haskap red wine dressing is bold, tangy, and just a little unexpected. The deep, jammy richness of haskap berries brings a natural sweetness and vibrant color, balanced by sharp red wine vinegar and a touch of Dijon for depth. As the olive oil slowly emulsifies, it transforms into a silky, glossy dressing with layers of flavour: fruity, savoury, and lightly herbaceous from the thyme. It’s a dressing that elevates a simple salad, but also works beautifully drizzled over salads (like our Apricot, Mint, & Pea Salad) roasted vegetables, grain bowls, or even grilled meats.

Ingredients

• 3 tbsp haskap jam (or blueberry, saskatoon, currant)

• 3 tbsp red wine vinegar

• 1 tsp Dijon mustard

• Pinch of dry thyme

• Salt & pepper (to taste)

• ¾ cup olive oil

Method

1. Whisk jam, vinegar, mustard, and thyme.

2. Slowly whisk in olive oil to emulsify (add a drop of ice water if it starts to split).

3. Season to taste.
