- 1/2 tsp EACH salt and pepper
- 1/2 - 1 small garlic clove* (, pressed through crusher or smashed (Note 2))

-
Makes enough for a big leafy salad for 4 people (4 big handfuls of lettuce), or garden salad.

Storage: Excluding garlic and fresh herbs, Dressing will keep for weeks in the fridge - just give it a good shake before using. Big batch - click servings and slide.

Use to dress any fresh salad (make sure leaves are dry otherwise it won't stick) or steamed, boiled or roasted vegetables (douse while hot so it absorbs!). Drizzle and toss well just before serving.
