Very good! I didn't have the dry mustard or salad dressing mix so I didn't add them, and it was still delicious!

Enjoyed the recipe. I assumed the 1/2 cup of salt was suppose to be 1/2 Tbsp (or tsp?) so I adjusted accordingly. Now that I've started making salad dressing from sratch, I have a hard time going back to the store bought/bottled versions. Thanks for sharing.

Half a cup of salt seemed like waaaaay too much, so I only used 1 tbsp, which worked well. I also added a clove of fresh garlic when I mixed it up. Generally, though, I do like being able to mix up just a little bit of dressing at a time, so easily. Nice little recipe.

Excellent! Great tasting dressing that comes together very quickly. Also, the dry rub is handy to have -- I used the dry mix, along with some dill and summer savory, to cook some chicken. I will be using this often.

This is a good quickie standby. To the finished salad dressing I added some finely grated parmesan cheese for added flavor and body.
