I wanted some Italian Dressing for a marinated salad, but I realized that I didn't have any on hand. So, I found out how to make my own, and it's much better than what I used to buy. :)
Italian Dressing Mix
1 Tbsp garlic salt
1 Tbsp onion powder
1 Tbsp white sugar
2 Tbsp dried oregano
1 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried basil
1 Tbsp dried parsley
1/4 tsp celery salt
1 Tbsp salt
In a small bowl, mix together the above ingredients. Store in a tightly sealed container.
To make the Dressing:
2 Tbsp dry mix
1/4 cup white vinegar
2 Tbsp water
2/3 cup canola or olive oil (or a combination)
Grated parmasean, ~ 2 Tbsp, or to taste
To prepare dressing, whisk the dry mix with vinegar and water. Let sit for 5 minutes. Then, whisk in oil. Add some grated parmasean and serve.
