I have enjoyed this dressing not only on salads but also as a marinade for grilled salmon. It is very tasty. I would like to note that olive oil has a chemistry to it that causes it to become bitter or unpleasant-tasting when mechanically blended on high speeds, so I usually wait until the last minute to add olive oil in dressings or hummus, and only blend it until it is well combined. (Besides, it seemed like 20 minutes seemed a bit excessive in my opinion.) I just blended the ingredients until it became smooth. Otherwise, I followed the directions as stated, and I very much love this recipe!

The Ospidillo Cafe Italian Salad Dressing,I always offer two dressings on the table here at The Ospidillo Cafe; The Stone Pipe Inn Salad Recipe #136181 and this one. When I place salads on the table, my guests typically query, “Where’s that good salad dressing that you make?” I just point to the two carafes and about half take one and half take the other; they taste nothing alike.,I have enjoyed this dressing not only on salads but also as a marinade for grilled salmon. It is very tasty. I would like to note that olive oil has a chemistry to it that causes it to become bitter or unpleasant-tasting when mechanically blended on high speeds, so I usually wait until the last minute to add olive oil in dressings or hummus, and only blend it until it is well combined. (Besides, it seemed like 20 minutes seemed a bit excessive in my opinion.) I just blended the ingredients until it became smooth. Otherwise, I followed the directions as stated, and I very much love this recipe!,This is delicious! I did sub one ingredient and that was the white wine vinegar for apple cider vinegar. I don’t think that it changed the recipe and it is yummy! I could see using this for a basting sauce while grilling chicken. This makes alot and that is fine with me. I will make this again and again and again. Thank you pat for this tastey salad dressing. 1/1/10: edit to add made this again with my new immersion blender and added blue cheese oh yummy! Shirl

Steps

1 Done	Blend All Ingredients in a Mixer For 20 Minutes. (use a Kitchen Aid Mixer on Speed Setting Number 2).
2 Done	Refrigerate For at Least 30 Minutes Before Serving.
3 Done	When Dressing Gets Too Cold It Will Solidify Somewhat, Due to the Olive Oil, So Allow It to Set Out 1/2 Hour or So If This Happens.
4 Done	Also, I Prefer to Use Tupelo Honey When I Have It Available Which Is Much Higher Quality in Flavor Than Regular Clover Honey.
5 Done	For the Italian Spices, use 2 Teaspoons of Dee514's Italian Blend Spice Mix Recipe #38293. Here It Is:
6 Done	2 Tablespoons Basil, 2 Tablespoons Marjoram, 1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder, 1 Tablespoon Oregano, 1 Tablespoon Thyme, 1 Tablespoon Rosemary, 1 Tablespoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes.
