DIY Salad Dressings

Posted on Jul 23rd 2008 9:31PM by Martha Edwards

I love eating veggies, but most store-bought salad dressings leave me cold. They rarely live up to my expectations -- they're either too sweet, too salty, too tangy, too rich, too fatty ... well, you get the point. For me, simplicity is king. I like combining just a few ingredients, and it often seems like manufactured salad dressings try too hard to be overly flavourful.

But the solution is simple: Make your own dressings. It's surprisingly easy to do. Mark's Daily Apple recently published a list of top DIY Salad dressings. Why not give some of the recipes a try?

Love Caesar salad? Combine these ingredients for a homemade caesar vinaigrette: White wine vinegar, olive oil, freshly grated parmesan, freshly ground pepper, freshly chopped garlic, a squeeze of lemon juice and a few finely-cut anchovies.
