Greek Salad Dressing
Description
Greek Salad Dressing brings together extra-virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar as the base, blending in pressed garlic for a sharp savory touch. Mustard powder contributes subtle heat and emulsifies the mixture while dried thyme and oregano add classic Mediterranean herbaceousness. The kosher salt and black pepper ground fresh complement these flavors, producing a dressing that suits green salads or roasted vegetables.
The preparation is straightforward: all ingredients are whisked or shaken together until well combined, resulting in a smooth vinaigrette. Its tangy acidity from the vinegar and the richness from olive oil provide a balanced flavor and texture.
This dressing’s robust yet simple composition also makes it suitable as a marinade for chicken, where it can infuse flavor before cooking, enhancing the poultry with herbal and garlic notes.
Stored properly, this dressing lasts for at least two weeks refrigerated, making it convenient to prepare ahead and use as needed for multiple meals.
