Notes
To save time, I usually triple or quadruple the dry portion of this recipe and store it in a jar in my spice cabinet.
I write “2 Tbsp” on the jar and that’s to let me know I need that much dry seasoning mix to make a batch of dressing. You can always use more or less, depending on how you like your dressing to taste. I also eyeball the mustard measurements, considering a “good hefty squirt” to be good enough!
