Pecans

I made a salad dressing that I haven't made in years. It's just as yummy (and easy) as I remember it. Plus, seeing the stained page that bears the recipe in my Cajun cookbook (and the equally messy page for Bananas Foster) reinforced for me that the book has been in my collection for more than 20 years. Ahem.

Pecan-Garlic Dressing

3 large garlic cloves
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
1/2 tsp sugar
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
3/4 cup olive oil

Mince garlic in food processor. Leave it running and add pecans, salt, pepper, and sugar. Stop machine and scrape bowl down.

Add vinegar, then, with motor running, add olive oil through top tube.
