I grew-up in a house with a refrigerator shelf filled with bottled (fat-free 😬) salad dressings. Thankfully, I’m well beyond that (no shame or judgement about bottled dressings - some are delicious!), but the creativity in making a vinaigrette is always rewarded. And no 2 vinaigrettes are ever the same! My favorite scenario is when a jar of something (mustard, jam, harissa, etc) is almost empty and I make a vinaigrette in that jar - all of the last tasty bits get shaken into the dressing and it’s super-flavorful. Thanks for your never-ending inspiration, Julia!
At this point, I'm pretty sure I've made all the dressings in Simply Julia, and (while they're all delicious and well worth making) I can definitely endorse your go-to dressing with soy, ACV, oil, and tahini. It's so good and (the best part) it's so easy to make in different quantities. I can throw together a small amount if I'm just making a quick side salad for my husband and I, or I can just up the amounts to make even more. And the fact that it's all equal amounts (so, no math) means that my communications-major brain is off the hook for doing calculations. LOVE it, and love this chart.

YES! I love doing that so much. So satisfying to get whatever's stuck in the jar to turn into something else miraculous.

As an English major who writes recipes for a living (math is hard!), I really appreciate this acknowledgement lol!
The charts are so helpful! Thank you, Julia. Enjoy your week-end!❤️
Thanks Pam!
Can't get enough of these charts! They are like little rays of sunshine/inspiration during the darkest/blahest time of year. Thank you so much!
I’m so glad 🧡
The Tom Cruise reference/link is a hoot!
PS: I love the charts too.
Thanks for catching that!!!!
