This smoky, sweet dressing can be whipped up in seconds and will keep in fridge for up to two weeks, not that it’ll last that long - you’ll be putting this homemade chipotle dressing on everything!
I always have a jar of this beautiful dressing on hand as it's so delicious - the perfect combination of spicy and sweet.
The recipe starts with chipotle paste, which is made with made jalapeño chillies that have been smoked and dried, then pureed. Store-bought usually also contains a little vinegar and sugar to preserve it, plus a little onion, garlic, tomato purée, herbs and spices.
To turn the chipotle paste into a beautiful dressing, we'll add some honey, red wine vinegar, tomato puree and olive oil and then whisk together until combined. So easy, right?!
Here's how to make this homemade chipotle dressing.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp runny honey
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp chipotle paste
