  1. Easy to make and turned out great. I made a smaller serving using 1tbsp red wine vinegar, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 garlic clove, and salt and pepper to taste. I'll be making this again!
     
  2. I love this dressing. I used a very good red wine vinegar, and the only additions I made were a little white Balsamic and some dried Oregano, smushed in palm or between fingertips and soaked in the red wine vinegar for a while before mixing up the dressing. I just made my third batch of this dressing. :-) I think the sharpness of the finished dressing probably relies a lot on the sharpness or smoothness of the red wine vinegar used.
     
  3. I found my own dressing to be quite sharp, having to add a lot (4 Tbsp) sugar and a lot more honey mustard. I also added a dash of worstershire sauce and soy seasoning sauce to take the edge off the sharpness. It's worth playing around with the flavours until you get something you like. I put everything in a blender to make the adjustments easy. Overall, a lovely and versatile dressing. Nice to have on hand as a quick and easy dressing that complements a wide variety of salads :)!
     
  4. My go-to dressing. The 2 to 1 ratio is perfect. I add about 3 cloves minced Garlic & extra Black Pepper, and about 1/2 Tsp. of Dried Oregano. Fantastic with Tomato & Cucumber salad.
     
  5. Quick, easy, & delicious! I added Parmesan cheese which added extra<br/>flavor. Will definitely be making again.
