Besides the fact that this takes a long time to make and the ingredient list is a mile long, I really like it. And it's nice that you can use it for more than one recipe, nit to mention that you can just use it for salad as well.
Pomegranate-Orange Dressing
Look for pomegranate molasses in Middle Eastern markets and health-foods stores. Its strong flavor makes this dressing better suited to pasta salads than green salads. As a marinade, it's best with pork, dark-meat chicken, and salmon.
Yield: About 1 1/2 cups (serving size: 1 tablespoon)
