  • Use a good quality vinegar. The type of vinegar you use will affect the flavor of the dressing. For a sweeter dressing, use a white vinegar or rice vinegar. For a more tangy dressing, use a balsamic vinegar or apple cider vinegar.
  • Add some sweetness to the dressing. This can be done with sugar, honey, or maple syrup. You can also use fruit, such as pineapple or cranberries.
  • Add some herbs and spices to the dressing. This will help to give it a more complex flavor. Some good options include garlic, onion, black pepper, celery seeds, and paprika.
  • Let the dressing sit for a while before using it. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
