All the green salads we had while growing up were dressed with my mother's vinaigrette. Make it in a jar with a lid, and store it in the refrigerator.

I found this to be a tad on the oily side. I like at least a 3 to 1 oil to vinegar ratio, (and often I bump it up to 3 to 2, but hey, I drink pickle juice!).

This seems to be a hit with everyone - we used it as chicken marinade also. In the process of making it again.

With a recipe as delicious and as easy to follow as this, using ingredients that are in most pantries, it's mind boggling to me why anyone buys bottled dressing. I followed this recipe exactly as written, mixed in a glass jar, and it is now my weeknight 'go-to' salad dressing that is satisfying in every way! Thank you! Thank you!!!

I love this salad dressing :) it works with every kind of salad and is soo easy to change up with different herbs. The version that I saw called for lime juice instead of lemon so that is the way I make it. I always have this in a jar in my fridge :)

I can understand why your dad only wanted to dress his salads with this! My husband asks me to make this twice a week now! Very tangy...really brightens a salad. I have been able to halve the recipe easily.

I added more lemon juice and vinegar to it. I like a more acidic taste to my dressings. It will be the dressing I make for now.
