Vinegar Allergy Italian Salad Dressing Recipe

Vinegar Allergy Italian Salad Dressing Notes

My own creation born out of desperation when I discovered vinegar was causing me to get Migraine headaches. Your Sumac has opened up a lot of doors, recipe-wise for me. I'm hoping by submitting this one I will be able to do the same for someone else. Sumac is not a well known herb [spice?]. Maybe we can change that a little.

Ingredients

• 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/16 teaspoon marjoram
• 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
• dash of pepper
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon freeze-dried shallots
• 2 teaspoons Italian Dressing Mix
• 1 1/2 tablespoons powdered sumac
• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1/3 cup water

Serves / Yields

2-3 salads depending on size

Preparation Instructions

I powder the shallots using a mortar & pestle, then mix the dry ingredients plus the sumac with the water and mix or shake well. Add the oil and mix or shake well again. Best after flavors are allowed to blend for several hours. I do not refrigerate.

Helpful Hints

I usually mix the 9 dry ingredients in a large [6 times] batch and store in one of your large jars. This makes it very easy to whip up a fresh dressing when needed.
