Classic Creamy Italian Salad Dressing

By charlotteh371

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1/3 cup good quality olive oil
• 1/2 cup natural, high-quality mayonnaise
• 2 cloves fresh garlic, finely minced
• 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 2 teaspoons honey
• 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated
• salt and pepper to taste
• a few tablespoons of water (ONLY IF NEEDED to thin the dressing out a little bit)

Preparation

Step 1

Instructions
Add all ingredients to a large mason jar and shake very well until combined. Store in the fridge for a few hours before serving, or serve immediately over your favourite garden salad.

Shake well before serving.

If the dressing is too thick, simply add water one teaspoon at a time to thin it out to the desired consistency.

Recipe Notes
This salad dressing keeps in the fridge for up to 5 days, so make it a day or two ahead of serving to save time!

If you prefer to make salad dressing without mayonnaise, simply substitute the mayonnaise in this recipe for 1/4 cup of vegetable oil and shake very well (or blend for best results).
