How to Make Banana Salad Dressing
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup milk until smooth.
- Gradually whisk in 2 cups of milk while stirring constantly.
- Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle boil (about 8-10 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup of mashed ripe banana.
- Pour the dressing into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, quarter or slice bananas into individual serving dishes.
- Spoon the chilled dressing generously over the bananas.
- Sprinkle with chopped peanuts or pecans (optional).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
