Calories: 248kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup olive oil
- 1/3 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice about 2 lemons
- 3 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 3-4 garlic cloves pressed
- 2 tbsp dried parsley
- 1 1/2 tbsp dried dill weed
- 2 tsp dried oregano
- coarse salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Combine ingredients for the dressing in a jar with a lid or salad dressing shaker and shake well.
- Serve over a salad right away or store to use later.
Storing:
- To store the Greek dressing, keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you’re ready to use it. It will stay fresh for up to 2 weeks. If you find that in that time, the dressing solidifies slightly, simply let it sit on the counter for about 30 minutes before giving the jar a good shake. Note: the dressing will and separates into layers but it's totally fine. Just give it a good shake before using.
Notes
- Separation is normal: Oil and water-based liquids naturally separate. Shake well before every use.
- Solidifying in the fridge: Olive oil can firm up when cold. Let the jar sit at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes before shaking and serving.
- Storage: Keep in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Always pour out what you need rather than scooping to keep it fresh longer.
- Vinegar swap: Red wine vinegar or champagne vinegar works well here too.
