About Italian dressing
Italian dressing is a zesty, tangy salad dressing rooted in Italian-American cuisine. Typically made from a blend of vinegar, oil—often olive or vegetable—and seasonings such as garlic, basil, oregano, and parsley, it offers bold flavors enhanced by optional ingredients like lemon juice, mustard, or parmesan cheese. Some versions feature sugar or honey for a touch of sweetness. Popular not only on salads, Italian dressing is also used as a marinade for meats and vegetables. From a health standpoint, it provides healthy fats from its oil base, especially if olive oil is used, and contains minimal calories with no cholesterol. However, some store-bought options may include significant amounts of added sodium, preservatives, or sugars, so careful label reading is advised. Homemade versions allow for greater control over ingredients and nutritional content, making it a versatile option for those pursuing a balanced diet.
