We really enjoyed this recipe. I did use red wine vinegar, reduced water to 2 tablespoons, and added croutons. Very nice. I served your salad with grilled chicken. Thanks for Posting, Di;-)

I didn't read the other reviews before making this and used the full amount of water. The salad was very tasty, but I think a lesser amount of water would have been good too.

After reading the other reviews, I just used a touch of water, quartered the recipe, and didn't have tarragon vinegar so used red wine vinegar and added some crumbled tarragon. Thanks Jim! Made for ZWT5.
