Grandmother's salad dressing. This is my personal favorite! Baba taught me to make this when I was a young girl and it will top any store bought dressing. My friend, Nancy, always want me to make it for her because she says it never comes out the same way for her. I usually make a double batch with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and Splenda so I always have it on hand in the refrigerator. The oil will congeal when its cold, but it will keep for months. Just be sure to bring it to room temperature and shake well before serving.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups vegetable oil (or olive oil)
3/4 cup red wine vinegar (or balsamic)
1 teaspoon Lawry's seasoning salt
1 clove fresh garlic, minced very fine
1 teaspoon paprika, ground
2 teaspoons sugar (or Splenda)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, coarsely ground
pinch oregano, ground
pinch basil leaves, ground
pinch tarragon
pinch rosemary
Directions:
Mix well in a blender.
