Sweet Sour Salad Dressing

House Restaurant Salad Dressing

Favorite Restaurant Salad Dressing

Many (many) years ago I was determined to develop the perfect Sweet Sour Salad Dressing to use as a House Dressing when I opened the restaurant. I wanted the guests to have the best salad dressing recipe ever. They have told me I succeeded!

It would not be much of an over-statement to say that this House restaurant salad dressing is partly responsible for the success of the restaurant.

 From the first day the restaurant opened and served the salad dressing with a variety of restaurant salads, (and vegetable plates) it became one of the talked about signature restaurant recipes ...a favorite restaurant recipe.

Not only is this a favorite restaurant salad dressing, the customers like using it as a dip for vegetable platters. Some guests use it as a dip for their chicken strips and some other food items!

"The perfect dressing is essential to the perfect salad, and I see no reason whatsoever for using a bottled dressing, which may have been sitting on the grocery shelf for weeks, even months - even years."
