Brimming with quick and easy recipes, 100 Great Salad Dressings will transform a plain salad into something special. As the most delicious results depend on a cunning combination of the finest ingredients, you are guided through the uses and properties of an array of oils, vinegars, and flavorings. The recipes include not only the classic vinaigrettes, but also a host of tempting hot and cold dressings, like Sun-Dried Tomato, Toasted Sesame, Parmesan, Caper and Anchovy—even Champagne and Pine Nuts and Chorizo and Watercress. There are also luscious dressings for fruit, including Apricot and Almond, Blood Orange and Clove, and Lemon and Thyme. It is a bonanza for salad lovers.
Kitchen Essential Salads have become a much more important part of our diet, since my wife and I have made a commitment to start eating healthier. The problem was that the ingredients in most bottled salad dressings read like a toxic waste dump. They also lack any real taste to speak of. So I bought Sally Griffiths book, "100 Great Salad Dressings" and thought I'd give making our own dressings a shot. The recipes are idiot-proof. Anyone can follow them. And, so far, we have gone through nearly a dozen of them and haven't hit a dud yet. We've got about fifty cookbooks of various sorts around here and "100 Great Salad Dressings" has become one of the top three most used.
