Notes
DOES GREEK SALAD DRESSING NEED TO BE REFRIGERATED?
Yes, store in the fridge in a tightly covered jar.
HOW LONG IS THE DRESSING GOOD FOR?
If you used garlic to make it, it is best to use it within 7 days. If no garlic was used, it can stay up to 14 days.
HELPFUL TIPS AND TRICKS
- Use high-quality extra virgin olive oil for extra health benefits and extra flavor. California Olive Ranch is my favorite and I always use it.
- Use organic red wine vinegar with the “Mother.” It is sold in almost all large supermarkets and health food stores, so it won’t be difficult to find. Of course, you can also buy it from Amazon.com.
- Fresh-squeezed lemon juice is the way to go, but you can also use bottled lemon juice as long as “lemon juice” is the only ingredient.
- Honey is optional! Although I enjoy this dressing with a touch of sweetness, try it without honey first—you may like it better. Honey can also be substituted with sugar or even maple syrup.
