Tips:

Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs will give your dressing the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount as you would fresh herbs.
Don't over-chop the herbs: When chopping the herbs, be sure to leave some larger pieces. This will help to release their flavor into the dressing.
Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil is the base of the dressing, so it's important to use a good quality oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice.
Let the dressing sit for a while: After you've made the dressing, let it sit for at least 30 minutes before using it. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
Taste the dressing before using it: Once the dressing has sat for a while, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed.

Conclusion:

This garlic herb salad dressing is a versatile and delicious dressing that can be used on a variety of salads. It's easy to make and only requires a few simple ingredients. With its bright, tangy flavor, this dressing is sure to become a new favorite.
