Poppy Seed Salad Dressing

Bourke NSW 2840

I live on a sheep station with my husband Phillip, southwest of Bourke. As drought and a wool recession took hold in 2001 , everyone was discovering other avenues of income and I wondered what my contribution could be. I had made a salad dressing – a recipe that was given to me- which was much admired and my friends suggested I make it commercially.

So after several sleepless nights pondering my ability to find the time, I produced my first batch - in Coca Cola bottles! In the intervening years, although it is still personally handmade , the business has grown successfully with shop & mail order sales all over Australia.

I hope you enjoy your homemade Poppy Seed Salad Dressing from Bourke
