Cilantro-Ginger-Garlic Dressing

One of my hobbies is buying bunches of cilantro at the grocery store (it is the same price or cheaper as the silly little plastic boxes with a few sprigs of cilantro) and then only using half of it for the recipe I had planned.  So then it sits there for awhile until I give up and throw it out.  This week I put my foot down- I would not waste the rest of the bunch!  Salad dressing it is.


Ingredients:
1/2 to 3/4 bunch of cilantro
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 T minced ginger
1/2 C olive oil, more if needed
1 T sugar
2 T red wine vinegar
crushed red pepper
pinch of salt

Pulse all ingredients in a small food processor until it is at your desired consistency.  Someone around here doesn't love vinegar too much, but you could certainly do more vinegar and less olive oil.
