Salads are a healthy option if you’re trying to eat right. But if you don’t have the perfect dressing for them, salads don’t taste great.
Below you will find a selection of my favourites.
1. Ranch
The ranch is an ideal dipping sauce for chicken wings, pizza, and fries. The zesty dressing is also notably the inspiration for a popular variety of snacks. Ranch’s unique flavour comes from a blend of buttermilk, mayo, sour cream and herbs.
2. Honey mustard
Honey mustard is a popular topping for hot dogs, burgers, french fries and salads. The dressing combines olive oil, garlic and white vinegar with the staple ingredients of honey and mustard to create a sweet flavour that pairs well with both meats and greens.
3. Tahini
Tahini works well in a variety of dishes unrelated to salad, but I do think salad dressing is one of the best ways to experience the full depth of tahini. Whether you are letting the flavour of tahini shine on its own or adding a few extra ingredients, it will spruce up even the dullest of salads.
4. Caesar
The creamy, grainy texture of caesar dressing is what I love the most about it. It is so flavourful and complex that caesar salad is a staple at most restaurants.
5. Balsamic vinaigrette
Balsamic vinaigrette goes beyond the green salad. This dark, tangy dressing is perfect on a simple salad of fresh tomato slices, cheese and basil. It also makes a great appetiser when paired with chunks of crusty white bread for dipping.
