Ingredients
  

  • 1 large bunch scallions
  • 1 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1/4-1/2 tsp cumin seed toasted
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • 1/4 cup olive oil plus more if needed (substitute water if oil free)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Grilled Scallions

  • Heat grill to 450 degrees F.
  • Trim ends from scallions. Slice each scallion in half lengthwise.
  • Place scallions in a grill basket and lightly spray with oil.
  • Grill for 5-7 minutes until charred but not completely blackened.

Vinaigrette

  • In a small pan, dry toast the cumin seeds over medium heat for 30-45 seconds until fragrant. Remove from heat.
  • Add grilled scallions, mustard, lemon juice, 1/4 tsp toasted cumin, 1/4 cup of olive oil to a blender. Process until smooth.
  • Taste and add salt, pepper, or additional cumin. If vinaigrette is too thick, add more olive oil 1 tbsp at a time until you reach desired consistency.

Serving Suggestions: serve with grilled vegetables such as bell peppers, potatoes, mushrooms, corn on cob, asparagus, cauliflower, as a salad dressing for mixed greens, or as a dipping sauce for raw cucumbers and tomatoes.
