Greek Dressing

Homemade Greek dressing should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It may separate; shake well before use.

Use good quality olive oil for the best flavor.

Adjust the amount of vinegar and lemon juice to your preferred tanginess.

Add a pinch of sugar to balance the acidity if needed.

This dressing is also great as a marinade for chicken or fish.
