CREAMY GREEK SALAD DRESSING



Creamy Greek Salad Dressing image

Greek salads are usually only dressed with olive oil and maybe lemon juice or red-wine vinegar. But this dressing is made of 'Greek' ingredients so, it's my Greek Dressing.

Time 5m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1 -2 garlic clove, minced fine (depending on how strong you want your dressing)
1 teaspoon dried oregano (mediterranean)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
salt & freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
3/4 cup buttermilk (or milk, but buttermilk is best, use 1/2 a cup if you want to use this as a dip)

Steps:

  • In a blender or food processor, whirl all the ingredients except the buttermilk for one minute.
  • With the blender running, slowly pour in the buttermilk and blend until thick and creamy (turn off the blender as soon as the dressing thickens or it may curdle).
  • Chill at least 1 hour so the flavours meld.
  • Refrigerate, tightly covered.
  • This makes nearly 2 cups of dressing and stays fresh for 3-4 days.
  • If the dressing separates, just give it a whizz in the blender again.

CREAMY GREEK SALAD DRESSING



Creamy Greek Salad Dressing image

A couple of my favorite Greek restaraunts of all time serve their salads with a creamy Greek dressing. I assumed it was a common occurance until I started searching for recipes so I could duplicate it at home. I'm so happy to have finally found one on this site (Recipe #59898)! All the non-creamy dressings are too tart for me (and believe me, I've tried several)...this one hits the spot!! The credit for this recipe should be given to evelyn/athens...mine is only a slight modification of hers. (Mine includes homemade buttermilk and less feta.)

Time 10m

Yield 8 , 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 tablespoon white vinegar or 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried dill
salt and pepper
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the milk and vinegar or lemon juice. Let sit for 5 minutes. (This process will produce buttermilk. Alternatively, you can just use 1/2 c "real" buttermilk, but I use this method because I never have the real stuff on hand.).
  • Meanwhile, combine the remaining ingredients in a blender or food processor.
  • With the blade running, slowly pour in the buttermilk and blend just until thickened (if you over-blend, it will curdle).
  • Cover tightly and chill well before serving so the flavors have a chance to meld.
  • Dressing will keep for about 4 days (though it may need another whirl in the blender / food processor if it separates).

CREAMY GREEK DRESSING

A recipe from The Best 30-minute Recipe of Cook's Illustrated. The flavor in this dressing work especially well with a leafy green salad with sliced cucumber and tomato. ETA : the taste is amazing. It's a bit hard to combine everything in the blender. Next time I'll use the food processor.
