About Italian salad dressing

Research draft based on the references below. These notes describe particular recipes and presentations; ingredient connections are still being reviewed.

Jeanine Donofrio and Phoebe Moore’s Italian dressing combines extra-virgin olive oil with white wine vinegar and lemon juice. Fresh parsley joins dried oregano and thyme in this selected preparation.

The authors describe the lemon and vinegar as zesty and bright, with Dijon mustard adding tang. Garlic provides a sharp, savory accent, while the selected honey mellows the bolder flavors.

The oil, vinegar, lemon juice, finely chopped parsley, honey, oregano, grated garlic, mustard, thyme, sea salt and freshly ground black pepper are whisked together in a small bowl.

Parmesan cheese is an optional addition, stirred into the same dressing after whisking. The authors offer the combined fresh and dried herbs for their nuanced flavor.

The dressing is offered for tossing with salad greens and cooked grains or drizzling over vegetables. These are serving suggestions for the prepared dressing.
