Creamy Greek Salad Dressing
- Ready In:
- 10mins
- Ingredients:
- 10
- Serves:
-
8
ingredients
- 1⁄2 tablespoon white vinegar or 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1⁄2 cup skim milk
- 1⁄2 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- salt and pepper
- 1⁄4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
directions
- In a small bowl, combine the milk and vinegar or lemon juice. Let sit for 5 minutes. (This process will produce buttermilk. Alternatively, you can just use 1/2 c "real" buttermilk, but I use this method because I never have the real stuff on hand.).
- Meanwhile, combine the remaining ingredients in a blender or food processor.
- With the blade running, slowly pour in the buttermilk and blend just until thickened (if you over-blend, it will curdle).
- Cover tightly and chill well before serving so the flavors have a chance to meld.
- Dressing will keep for about 4 days (though it may need another whirl in the blender / food processor if it separates).

<p>I never realized how easy it is to create restaraunt-quality dishes at home until I lived with my grandparents over one of my summer breaks from college. As soon as I got my first apartment (a year or so later), I started cooking and have been addicted ever since! I like to challenge myself with new ingredients and techniques. I'm big on research, and will spend hours learning the how to's of new ideas ahead of time, because there's nothing more depressing than making a disappointing meal! <br /><br />I've taken it upon myself to be in charge of Thanksgiving dinner for the past 5 years (I'm 27 now)...I enjoy the challenge, and think I put together a pretty darn good spread! :) <br /><br />My fiance and I both LOVE to eat good food, but although we won't deny ourselves some wings and a beer now and again, we try to eat pretty healthfully on a day-to-day basis.</p>
