Chestnut Honey Vinaigrette
You know you’re in a great space when the simple, fresh, and fragrant flavors of whatever you’re consuming simply make you swoon – simple but over-the-top.
THEN, you ask for the recipe and are escorted to the kitchen for not only the recipe but a full-on demonstration.
Yes, that happens – not to me, but to one of the loves of my life.
Exquisite, amazing.
Enjoy all the flavors, aromas, and visuals.
Serve over simple butter lettuce.
Indulge.
Chestnut Honey Vinaigrette.
Light, dreamy, refreshing.
Nutty and bright, honey from the chestnut tree.
