Notes
- Let the dressing sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This isn’t required, but I can tell you from experience, the flavor of the dressing develops more and more as it sits in the refrigerator for the first 30 minutes to 2 hours.
- I do not recommend freezing the dressing because it’s dairy-based and the texture won’t be the same after it’s defrosted.
- This recipe makes just over 1 cup of dressing. If you’d like to double the recipe, simply click the 2X button above under the word "ingredients". The ingredient amounts will automatically update to make 2 cups of the dressing.
