I made this recipe exactly as written (with 3 cloves of garlic and with the sugar). I thought it was a bit bland, unfortunately. My husband thinks it would be good for marinating steaks, so I will let him use what I have left for that.

I enjoyed this over a nice salad. I halved the recipe and used a little more vinegar and sugar. Thanks for a yummy dressing! Made for KK"s Top 25.

I saved this recipe in 2010 and have made it many times. Marked it, “I love it”. I did increase the red wine vinegar to 6 Tbsp but no other changes ( no sugar)and I still love it!

Really good recipe. I added a fresh tomato and some water [very little] and pureed it in the food processer.

Great tasting dressing! The amounts of spices were just right. Made it for my sister,for myself I need to find a low fat version.
