SLIGHTLY CREAMIER SUNDAY-SALAD DRESSING



Slightly Creamier Sunday-Salad Dressing image

The best vinaigrettes are emulsified - that is, they are smooth and at least temporarily stable, the disparate ingredients suspended among one another. (The addition to your dressing of already emulsified mixtures - maybe mustard or a dollop of mayonnaise - can help in this regard.) Whatever the dressing, I serve the resulting meal with a baguette and some salted butter. And as long as we're sharing, often a roast chicken too. Swiping bread through a small puddle of melted chicken fat and salad dressing, after all, is one of life's great pleasures.
