For example, if you guys have tried that one salad dressing bottle that's shaped odd like a trapezoid called Champagne it's so balanced that you can almost drink it and not get overwhelmed with the vinegar. I try to make home made dressing but it just doesn't come out like that or the italian restuarants even the cheap take outs one. |

Also you can thicken up a dressing by adding the oil in a very slow stream in a food processor. It changes the consistency completely. I made mayonnaise once, and that's how you do it.
