CREAMY PARMESAN DRESSING

A great salad dressing with a nice tangy flavor. The taste compliments lasagne, spaghetti, and other similar Italian dishes. Tonight I tried some leftover sauce on a salad of baby spinach and romaine with crumbled albacore tuna--it was fabulous. I at least double the recipe every time I make it because 1/3 cup just isn't enough. From Cuisine at Home.

CREAMY DRESSINGS

I offer you here a blueprint dressing you can use for endless variations. The three that follow are classic combos, but I hope you'll be inspired to put your own spin on them. A few more ideas off the top of my head: stir in a spoonful of pesto or a spice blend; swirl in some chili oil or blend with a spoonful of herb sauce. Play around with different combinations and don't feel limited to use them on lettuce alone. Creamy dressings make great dips for crudités or chips, of course, but can work as a sauce for poached shrimp or simple seared fish. A smear can do wonders for a plate of boiled potatoes or (cooked from frozen) French fries.

PARMESAN-BUTTERMILK DRESSING



Parmesan-Buttermilk Dressing image

This is my take on a sour cream house dressing from a restaurant I worked at in Arizona when I was younger. We would dip our onion rings and French fries in it, put it on our burgers, and of course, on our salad. I hope you enjoy.
