Love adding sunflower seeds to your meals? Make this salmon with sunflower seed pesto! This sunflower seed dressing is rich and creamy, with a nutty, slightly earthy flavor and just a hint of sweetness. Add a squeeze of lemon juice, some garlic, and miso to take it over the top.
Toasted sunflower seeds: Toasting the sunflower seeds first adds a nutty richness that makes for the perfect base for this dressing. You can also use raw sunflower seeds, but the flavor won’t be as deep. Lemon: Adding this zesty citrus note brightens the dressing. Miso: This star player brings the umami, adding savory depth. Garlic: Because everything tastes better with a little garlic! Water: Thins it out to the perfect consistency. Salt: To balance it all out. Optional cayenne: If you don’t mind a little heat, a pinch of cayenne adds a subtle kick
