I made substitutions based on what I had and it turned out great. I believe this recipe would be fantastic as written – has all the makings for a special dressing. My subs were Pinot Noir for Zinn, and 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar, one red wine vinegar. Using it for a coleslaw dressing.
Great stuff. We just ran out, so I will have to make it again!
Very good! Thank you for the recipe
The only thing I did differently was using Merlot rather than Zinfandel, but even if I had used the earthier Zin, this dressing ought to have been called a Green Onion dressing as that is, by far, the dominant element. That said, I’d DEFINITELY be making this again.
This is a fantastic dressing. I was looking for something specifically for cole slaw for salmon patty burgers. All of the ingredients balance well together. I was afraid it would be too tangy from the vinegar or green onions but the mayo mellows it all out. It has a wonderfully rich, creamy, smooth flavor. It can definitely serve as a salad dressing. I think I might add avocado to it next time to have two different dressings!
Easy, delicious and infinitely flexible. I used apple cider vinegar and the cabernet/merlot wine I had and it was delicious. I imagine rice vinegar would make it a little sweeter. This would be great on a salad with blue cheese or Gorgonzola. I doubled the recipe and used in Cole Slaw.This is a keeper!
Always a plus to find a dressing this good and quick that I can make myself instead of buying bottled…I think I followed the recipe’s proportions, but this turned out to be a little thin for my preference. Easily remedied by adding a bit more mayo. Taste was great – and I had a delicious mixed salad of romaine, radicchio, spinach, and feta cheese.
Thanks, Marbalet. I was in a rush and with limited ingredients in stock. A good, quick recipe, and I’m glad it’s not too sweet!
Not very sweet . I think I will add sugar next time.
