Dressings
There are plenty of salad dressings
available in the supermarket, but nothing tastes quite the same as
homemade, fresh dressing. Homemade dressing can be made in any quantity
so you won't be stuck with a whole bottle of dressing you get tired of
and never finish.
Your
"Basic" Oil and Vinegar
Mix 1 part vinegar (clear, red wine, or
garlic type) with 4 parts oil (vegetable, peanut, or safflower) and 1/2
part water. Add pepper, tarragon basil, oregano - whatever spices you
like best. Mix well before serving.
Creamy
Mustard
Choose your favorite mustard (Dijon
mustard works well) and mix with sour cream.
Onion
Dip
This can be used straight as a potato
chip dip or as a salad dressing if you add some oil and vinegar. Add
dried onion to 8 oz. of sour cream. Mix thoroughly and serve chilled.
Guacamole
Guacamole can be used as a dip, salad
dressing, or topping for hamburgers and nachos. Chop and mix a ripe
avocado. Add about 5 drops of lemon juice to keep the avocado mixture
from turning brown. Add sour cream and spices.
