This dressing complements any green salad, but the addition of some small chunks of cantaloupe, honeydew, or star fruit to your greens will enhance the orange-honey flavor of the dressing. Or try it over slices of cold roast pork with nectarine wedges on watercress.
Poppy Seeds: Did you know that it takes almost a million seeds to make a pound? These tiny bluish-black gems come from the opium poppy plant. But even if you eat a million, you won't experience any narcotic effect. Connoisseurs say those imported from Holland taste best. For even better flavor, seeds should be slightly toasted in a 350℉ (180℃) oven for about 5 minutes.
