Yikes, I just bought one but it is like a lawn mower, cut anything down. Dangerous for old ladies, lolBy the way, break out the blender or mixer for these dressings.
Nice!Salad dressings without sugar/starch and maximum a teaspoon of oil, alllivesmatter? OK, here we go, but first an explanation: Norway has a milk product named (seter)rømme. Exactly equal has never been sourced by me outside Norway/Iceland, but Creme Fraiche 35-40 % is an excellent subsitute. Add 2-3 drops of sour lemon juice pr cup and it’s even more excellent.
Then some receipes, let’s start with the easiest and “standard” for carrot salat in Norway: Lemon juice and water 2:1, a pinch of salt and two pinches of coarsly ground black pepper.
Mint dressing
One cup of yoghurt naturel, 1/2 tablespoon freshly and finely chopped mit, 1/3 teaspoon salt. Mix and store cold for 1-2 hours.
Apple dressing
One teaspoon of oil into a pan, heat deacent and add one tablespoon of dry mustard seed. Fry on maximum heat until seed starts to “pop” like popcorn. Cool and mix with one cup of yoghurt naturel, and one medium sour green apple (coarsly grated or finely chopped). Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt, mix well and chill for min two hours
Parsley dressing
One cup of yoghurt naturel, four tablespoons of finely chopped parsley and (may be) one small teaspoon of honey. Mix well, add salt/pepper to taste and chill for min two hours
Summer dressing
One box (about 1.2 cups) rømme or substitue, 1 dl (about 7 teaspoons mixed fresh and finely chopped herbs, juice and finely grated peel of 1/2 sweet and not to large lemon. Mix well, add salt/pepper to taste and chill overnight Suitable herbs: Parsley, coriander, thyme,oregano, basil, celery leaves etc, but rember always two or three diffent suitable together Orange (not to sweet) may substitue lemon - but that means easter and not summer i Norway...
Garlic dressing
One box (se above) rømme/substitue,two clowes of garlic (finlye chopped), three tablespoons of parsley (finely chopped), 1/4 tablespon of salt and 1/4 tablesponn of black coarsly grated pepper. Mix well, chill overnight
Spicy Middle East dressing

Selbu-dressing
110 grams/4 oz of Selbu/other strong blue chese, mix with fork into one cup of rømme/substitute and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Taste with lemon and chill over night.
Mustard dressing
One cup of yoghurt natuerel, 3 tablespoons of mustard type (preferable Dijon, coursly grinded), a teaspoon of mustard and (may be) a tablespoon of finely chopped mango. Salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste, chill at least three hours
School dressing (developed by grade 5-7 in a rural Norwegian school)
Seven tablespoons of kesam (naturel) 1/2 tablespoon of strong/sweet mustard, 1/2 tablespoon of apple vinegar, one small finely chopped red chilli, one clove of finely chopped garlic. Specially created forthis salad (planned to serve in wholegrain pita bread): One pound of oven-baked salmon or trout filet, 1/2 large cucumber (diced) two large tomatoes (diced), 12 oz of corn, 1/3 large Beijing cabbage, 1/3 large green finely chopped bell pepper and one small coarsly chopped red onion.
