    So the world has gone crazy and you have a garden with various lettuce and salad greens. What kind of dressing do you use? something you can make?

    Yes,vinaigrettes especially. You can easily ferment the vinegar and grow the rest. I have a sausage press that can also be used to press oils. Spices and salt would potentially be the most difficult to obtain.

    Balsamic Vinegar, Olive Oil, a bit of sugar or honey to taste and take the bite out of the vinegar, shredded greek oregano, a crushed garlic clove and a whole sage leaf in a pint jar. Let it sit for 24 hours and apply to salads.

    WHAT? IS that the green stuff? YUCK
    Just kidding! Normally its Lighthouse Blue Cheese dressing, pinch of fresh coarse ground pepper, shredded cheddar, sun flower seeds, bacon bits, carrot strips and fresh sliced and skinned cucumber and croutons!
    We also like Italian Dressing, basically Olive Oil, Balsamic vinegar, and various spices!

    what sausage press do you use for oil press? @3M-TA3

    Recipe - CONDIMENTS from scratch with shopping list

    There are 100's of variations of salad dressings,
    oil, something acid like vinegar, lemon or lime, or wine gone to vingar and any spice from ginger to basil.... just depends on what you like

    make mayo out of oil and eggs

    one of my favorites is ginger with vinegar and honey or sugar.... instant asian dressing

    i haven't bought dressing in 15 years as i dont like the preservative taste in store bought or the price.
