Dressing, Vinaigrette, whatever you call them,can be made with just about anything you have in your cabinet or fridge.
Vinaigrette are supposed to be 3 parts oil to 1 part acid. Oil is fattening so you can adjust that to whatever you want or don't add oil at all. You are looking for flavor that is the important thing.
I use lemon juice instead of vinegar. and of course I don't measure lol
I add my seasoning and let it sit for a few
then a little agave syrup (I like sweet and tangy)
pinch salt
pepper
and it you want to put the oil drizzle in while whisking to emulsify the mxiture. You will know when to stop with the oil...just remember calories. lol
now that you get the basic idea these are things I have used
Rasberry jam
pear or apricot jam
with the jams you need an acid ie:vinegar or juice
I have used lemon, apple, cranberry and lime juices for the acid.
Sheesh did this make sense? lol
Be creative! for some reason when you play with your food it tastes better
