Creamy Greek Salad Dressing image

A couple of my favorite Greek restaraunts of all time serve their salads with a creamy Greek dressing. I assumed it was a common occurance until I started searching for recipes so I could duplicate it at home. I'm so happy to have finally found one on this site (Recipe #59898)! All the non-creamy dressings are too tart for me (and believe me, I've tried several)...this one hits the spot!! The credit for this recipe should be given to evelyn/athens...mine is only a slight modification of hers. (Mine includes homemade buttermilk and less feta.)

Time 10m

Yield 8 , 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 tablespoon white vinegar or 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried dill
salt and pepper
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the milk and vinegar or lemon juice. Let sit for 5 minutes. (This process will produce buttermilk. Alternatively, you can just use 1/2 c "real" buttermilk, but I use this method because I never have the real stuff on hand.).
  • Meanwhile, combine the remaining ingredients in a blender or food processor.
  • With the blade running, slowly pour in the buttermilk and blend just until thickened (if you over-blend, it will curdle).
  • Cover tightly and chill well before serving so the flavors have a chance to meld.
  • Dressing will keep for about 4 days (though it may need another whirl in the blender / food processor if it separates).

Not a fan. This dressing is too thick and creamy for my taste.

This is the worst salad dressing I've ever had. It's bland and tasteless.

This dressing is a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I'll try adding a little bit of honey next time.

I'm not a huge fan of mayonnaise, but this dressing is still really good. The other ingredients really balance out the flavor.

This dressing is a great way to use up leftover herbs. I always have a bunch of parsley and dill in my fridge, so this is a perfect recipe for me.

I was disappointed with this dressing. It was too bland and didn't have much flavor. I won't be making it again.

This dressing is a bit too creamy for my taste, but it's still very good. I think I'll try making it with less mayonnaise next time.

I love how this dressing is both creamy and tangy. It's the perfect balance of flavors. I've used it on salads, grilled chicken, and even roasted vegetables.

I've tried so many Greek salad dressings, but this one is by far the best. It's so creamy and tangy, and it pairs perfectly with the fresh vegetables in the salad.

This creamy Greek salad dressing is a game-changer! It's so flavorful and versatile. I love that it's not too heavy, so it doesn't weigh down the salad.
