BASIC VINAIGRETTE DRESSING WITH 8 VARIATIONS
Bottled salad dressing can be convenient but its expensive and often full of salt, sugar, and chemical additives. Making your own is simple and allows you to customize the seasonings to suit whatever meal you are preparing. The amounts given make about 1/4 cup and can be expanded infinitely for larger salads. It can be made several days ahead and kept in the fridge. Sorry about the slightly odd way of putting the ingredients for the creamy dressing variations. The recipe editor is picky about what it will accept.

Steps:
- Shake all ingredients for your chosen variation together in a tightly-lidded container OR whisk together in a small bowl.
- Let stand 10 minutes to rehydrate dried herbs and blend flavors.
- Shake again then dress salad as desired.
- Note -- I recommend the lemon dressing on spinach.
- Note -- I recommend the Bacon Dressing, Mustard Dressing, and Balsamic Vinaigrette on strong greens such as escarole, curly endive, and dandelion greens.
- Note -- The sweeter version of the mustard dressing is great for a vinegar coleslaw if you discover that you have accidentally gotten one of those occasional cabbages that are a touch on the bitter side.
- Note -- feel free to play with other seasonings, more complex blends, flavored oils, and flavored vinegars. Once you've learned the technique you can customize your salad dressing to suit just about any meal.

Steps:
- Place all ingredients in a container with a tight-fitting lid (a mason jar works great).
- Shake vigorously for 30 seconds until emulsified. You can also emulsify your vinaigrette in a blender or food processor (work on low, increasing the speed as you stream in the oil last). I only use a blender when working in extra large quantities. Up to about a cup, shaking it like crazy in a mason jar works great (and there's way less clean up.)
- Alternatively, you can whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl. To use this method, whisk all ingredients except the olive oil in a small bowl, then stream in the olive oil while you continue to whisk until the dressing has emulsified.

BALSAMIC GLAZE
This glaze is a must-have accompaniment to drizzle over fish, poultry, vegetables, pastas, salads, and even fruit. It can turn any dish from ordinary to extraordinary with its perfectly balanced, intense flavor of sweet and tangy. It adds a beautiful, deep pop of color to any dish to create a perfect, professional presentation. I make a large batch and have it on hand in the fridge at all times. Once you start adding this glaze to dishes you will become addicted and crave its intense flavor.

- Balsamic Salad Dressing―Basic and Simple. A simple vinaigrette accentuates the complexity of balsamic vinegar. You don't need the most expensive bottle to make a good balsamic salad dressing, but look for a commercial-grade brand labeled "aceto balsamico di Modena" for the best flavor.
- Easy Balsamic Reduction. Heat mellows balsamic vinegar, turning it sweet and syrupy. Simmer it on the stovetop for an easy balsamic reduction you can use to glaze a piece of fish, drizzle on roasted vegetables, or surprise your family and friends with an unexpected dessert topping.
- Balsamic Honey Salad Dressing. To the base of a basic balsamic vinaigrette, you can add sweetness and spice with honey and Dijon mustard, which also give this balsamic honey salad dressing a little heft and helps it adhere to the lettuce better.
- Vegan Orange Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing. Fruit and balsamic pair nicely, and the addition of orange juice to a basic vinaigrette turns it into a crisp splash of flavor.
- White Balsamic Vinaigrette. The sweet-tart flavor and golden color of white balsamic vinaigrette makes it a good choice for dressing salads and vegetables when you want a lighter, brighter floral flavor.
- Balsamic Onion Jam. Balsamic vinegar deepens the caramelized effect, giving slow-cooked onions a rich, mellow flavor in a balsamic onion jam perfect for topping burgers, a pork roast, or even just toast.
- Fig Jam With Wine and Balsamic Vinegar. Honey and figs enhance the inherent sweetness of balsamic vinegar, yielding a jam that pairs well with soft cheeses, summer fruits, yogurt, and freshly baked bread.
- Balsamic Tomato Salad. Balsamic vinegar takes the flavor of vine-ripened summer tomatoes over the top in this simple balsamic tomato salad recipe you can plate individually or serve in a big bowl.
- Greek Watermelon and Feta Salad. This Greek watermelon and feta salad stars two of balsamic vinegar's favorite playmates, fruit and soft cheese. The sweet-tart flavor of the balsamic heightens the sweetness of juicy watermelon and the salty bite of feta cheese.
- Green Salad With Dried Cranberries and Fig Balsamic Dressing. The salty bite of feta cheese balances this sweet and crunchy green salad with dried cranberries and fig balsamic dressing.
