Description

Elevate your salads with this quick and delightful Fancy Lady Salad Dressing, perfect for adding a touch of elegance to your mixed greens. This dressing combines a zesty blend of white wine vinegar and lemon juice with a hint of sweetness from sugar and a savory touch of garlic powder. The optional sesame seeds add a nutty crunch, while pepper rings or mandarin oranges can be added as toppings for an extra burst of flavor and color.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the white wine vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, and garlic powder until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

  2. Chill Mixture: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the mixture for 15 to 20 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together and develop a deeper taste.

  3. Add Sesame Seeds: If using sesame seeds, remove the bowl from the refrigerator and stir in the sesame seeds.

  4. Season and Mix: Season the dressing with freshly ground black pepper and salt. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

  5. Serve: Drizzle the dressing over your favorite salad greens and toss to coat. For added flair, top with pepper rings or mandarin oranges if desired.
