Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like parsley, chives, and tarragon add a burst of flavor to French dressing. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use about half the amount.
  • Let the dressing marinate: Marinating the dressing for at least 30 minutes allows the flavors to meld and develop. This will give you a more flavorful dressing.
  • Use a good quality oil: The type of oil you use will affect the taste of the dressing. Use a flavorful oil like olive oil or avocado oil. Avoid using vegetable oil, as it can make the dressing taste bland.
  • Adjust the vinegar to your taste: The amount of vinegar in the dressing can be adjusted to your taste. If you like a tangy dressing, use more vinegar. If you prefer a milder dressing, use less vinegar.
  • Add a touch of sweetness: A touch of sweetness can help to balance out the acidity of the vinegar. You can add a teaspoon of honey, maple syrup, or sugar to the dressing.
