  1. This is my maiden-voyage making salad dressing from scratch. I have always played with olive oil, red wine vinegar, a little garlic salt and pepper, but never seems to turn out like my Italian grandmother made until I started using this recipe. Now I use it on more than salad. I use it on tomatoes, veggies, cucumbers, even cold tuna. And it’s a great marinade for chicken and fish. Thanks a bunch from this little Italian guy from Detroit.
