Tips & substitutions:
I have included step-by-step photos and directions above to ensure your first attempt will be successful.
- Variations- These ingredients can be switched out with other variations if desired. For instance, though the recipe calls for balsamic vinegar, other vinegar such as pomegranate, red wine, as well as others can be substituted.
- Mustard- I personally like Dijon in this dressing, but brown spicy, yellow, and others would likely be delicious too.
- Sweetener- If maple syrup isn’t a favorite for you, try agave, brown rice syrup, or another sweetener of your choice.
- More options- Another 3-ingredient oil-free salad dressing that I love is this 5-Minute Tangy Vinegar Dressing that is actually from my favorite Thai restaurant where they use it as a dipping sauce for their fresh garden spring rolls.
