Notes
Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor and smoothest texture in this strawberry vinaigrette dressing recipe. You can use thawed frozen berries but it makes the dressing more prone to separate. If this occurs, shake well before serving.
Adjust the sweetness by adding more maple syrup or honey to suit your taste.
Store leftover dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week; give it a good shake or whisk before using again.
