French Dressing

French Dressing

Try this recipe for an "American" French dressing - a creamy red-orange, English-style dressing that mixes sweet with tangy with savory. This dressing has so many more layers of flavor compared to the store bought version, and is almost as easy to make as pouring from a bottle.

Notes

You can use olive oil in place of vegetable oil, but make sure it is on the lighter side. You do not want flavor from the oil.
