The main reason that I bought the Avoca Salads cookbook (Avoca Ltd, 2008) is for their Avoca French salad dressing recipe. Avoca is a beautiful store and café in Dublin (www.avoca.ie). I’ve modified this recipe for the Thermomix. It makes a smaller amount and it has less oil, so it’s slightly runnier than the original.
