Zesty Homemade Italian Dressing
Forget the bottled stuff: this zesty homemade Italian dressing is easy to make and packed with flavor.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup extra virgin olive oil, best quality such as Colavita or Lucini
- ⅓ cup red wine vinegar, best quality such as Pompeian Gourmet or Domaine des Vignes
- 1½ tablespoons real maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2½ teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 4 small garlic cloves, minced
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a jar. Seal tightly with lid and shake vigorously to emulsify. Toss gently with the romaine lettuce right before serving. Store extra dressing in refrigerator for up to a week. As the dressing sits, it will separate (and solidify in the fridge), so be sure to shake well before using.
