Brazil Nut Free Sumac Vinaigrette
Bright, tangy, and layered with warm spice, this sumac vinaigrette is the kind of dressing that makes you want to put it on absolutely everything. The star ingredient is ground sumac, a deep ruby-red spice with a fruity, citrusy bite that blooms beautifully when it steeps in apple cider vinegar for just a few minutes. From there, fresh lemon juice, grated garlic, turmeric, and ginger build a dressing that feels complex without requiring any complicated technique. A slow drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil while whisking brings it all together into a silky, emulsified pour that clings to greens, roasted vegetables, or grain bowls like a dream. A touch of raw honey is optional but rounds out the acidity in the most satisfying way. Every ingredient here is straightforward and naturally free from tree nut concerns, so you can shake it up and dress your plate with total confidence.
