About the recipe

A vinaigrette is the perfect choice for the sparkling flavors of Beautiful Briny Sea’s Mr. Gigglepants hibiscus sugar. Once you’ve got it made, here are three ways to use up the vinaigrette: on an arugula and winter green salad with sliced apples, jicama, toasted walnuts and freshly grated Pecorino; on a salad of endive and Valencia orange sections garnished with snipped chives and pomegranate seeds; or on grilled radicchio chopped and tossed with hand-torn butter lettuce with toasted almonds and freshly grated Manchego cheese. Don’t forget to sprinkle your salad with a little extra sparkle of Mr. Gigglepants.
