Oil and Vinegar Salad Dressing Recipe

Ive done a low sodium, creamy balsamic several times that is oil, balsamic, wee bit of low sodium soy sauce, greek yogurt, brown mustard and honey. Pepper and garlic powder. I dont usually measure, however.

Dijon mustard is a great addition.

I also don't measure but I do:
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Red Wine Vinegar
Juice of 1 large lemon
Fresh cracked black pepper
Pinch of red pepper flakes
Pinch of granulated garlic

and I salt the salad after applying the dressing

I make Susan Spicer's dressing she uses at Bayona all the time. Simple and delicious.

This simple balsamic dressing is so much better than the bottled variety. I like to toss it with some mixed salad greens, chopped apples, Craisins, toasted nuts and crumbled blue cheese.

Makes 1 cup, or enough for 8 first-course salads

2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp plus 1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp honey
3/4 cup olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
salt and pepper

Whisk together the vinegars, mustard, and honey in a small bowl, then gradually whisk in the olive oil. Taste the dressing and finish by adding lemon juice, and salt and pepper, to taste.

garlic rice wine vinegar + tony's + a wee bit of sugar (can omit) + olive oil was always my go to

It should, but those are so simple I make it fresh every time. The numbers Stefan uses are good for 2-3 salads.

1/4 cup Honey
1/2 cup pure vegetable oil
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

add ingredients into Mason jar, shake well, and OK to leave out or refrigerate. Excellent lite salad dressing.

a splash of water in your oil/vinegar mix will help it to temporarily emulsify when you shake it or whisk it

A little bit of Mexican Crema will do the the same thing. And it adds some additional acidity.

I do a bag of romaine, add diced onion and tomatoes, throw in a tablespoon of oil (garlic, citrus, or plain usually), 1 tablespoon white vinegar, 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar, then salt/pepper or cavenders to taste.

Shake it up and serve.
