How should I use and store this 16 oz bottle for best results?

The emulsified formula clings to leaves and roasted vegetables, so a small amount stretches a long way—shake well before using to reblend any separation. Store refrigerated after opening to preserve flavor and freshness; use within the timeframe printed on the bottle for optimal taste.

• Shake vigorously before each use to recombine oils and vinegar
• Refrigerate after opening; allow to come to room temperature briefly for easier pouring
• Use as a 1:1 replacement for other vinaigrettes in recipes
• Ideal for prepping salads ahead—dress greens just before serving

Can I customize this dressing for different cuisines or meals?

Yes—this vinaigrette is a versatile base that adapts well to additional flavors. Add fresh herbs, citrus, or heat to tailor it to Mediterranean, Latin, or Asian-inspired plates without losing its core character.

• Stir in chopped basil, oregano, or parsley for herb-forward salads
• Add lemon zest or juice for brighter, citrus notes
• Mix in a touch of honey or maple syrup for balanced sweetness
• Whisk with chili flakes or sriracha for a spicier finish
