Pizzalinni Greek Salad Dressing

Submitted by Vina7737

"A Recipezaar adoptee. I've made a few changes in the forms of mustard, egg, oil, and oregano. I also decreased the amount of garlic to three cloves from the original 6. Go for the larger if you're a garlic fanatic."

I've been using the original vesion of this recipe for years, except as the poster, I use about 3 cloves of garlic. It's similar to the dressing I would get in the small greek restaurants in New York years ago. It's not a vinegrette like most, it's a thickened, yellow lemony dressing that is absolutely wonderful for greek salads. FYI, the original recipe from the Pizzalinni restaurant called for 1/2 tsp. mustard powder instead of the dijon, 6 cloves of garlic, 1/2 tsp worcestershire and 1 tsp. dried oregano instead of the fresh.
