Is balsamic dressing healthy?

Homemade balsamic dressing is much healthier than store bought dressings. This recipe contains less oil and has options to eliminate it completely if desired!

Does maple balsamic dressing need to be refrigerated?

I recommend storing homemade dressing in the refrigerator with an airtight lid. Store the dressing for up to two weeks!

Why did my homemade dressing solidify?

Olive oil will coagulate or thicken when it is cold. When dressing is stored in the fridge it will start to solidify. This is completely normal! To get the dressing back to a pourable consistency simply remove it from the fridge about 20 minutes before serving. Shake well before using.
