medium heat until it begins to melt. Add the
almonds to the pan and toss rapidly until the
sugar coats all of the almonds and the almonds
are lightly browned. Pour them out onto a pyrex
dish and separate almonds with a fork. Cool
until hardened and break into pieces. |

bowl, combine all of the dressing ingredients
except for the olive oil. Add the oil in a slow
stream, whisking as you add the oil until the
dressing thickens. |
