A side note: I started out making this with Cuisine Perel’s Spicy Pecan vinegar (available from Dr. Fuhrman’s website and elsewhere). However, that got to be very expensive considering the amount of this I use in a week. So I started making my own pecan-flavored vinegar using pecan extract and seasoned rice vinegar. But seasoned rice vinegar is loaded with sugar and salt, so I began using less of it and adding cider vinegar. The moral of this story is that you can use all Spicy Pecan vinegar or all seasoned rice vinegar (just use more vinegar instead of the water).
1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup water
2-3 tsp. minced garlic (I buy it in big jars)
1 tbsp. Dijon-style mustard
1/2 tsp. pecan flavoring extract
2-3 tbsp. ground flax seeds
Shake all ingredients in a storage container or whirl in a blender. The flax seed will cause the dressing to thicken slightly over time, adding a nice consistency to it.

This has really good flavor, but after a night in the fridge it had the consistency of snot… I think next time I’ll use half of the flax seeds. I might add some Stevia too, a little sweetness might go good with it. 🙂
