Salad dressing is a flavorful liquid or semi-liquid condiment used to enhance the taste of salads. Common ingredients include oils, vinegar, citrus juices, yogurt, herbs, spices, and sweeteners like honey or sugar. Originating from various culinary traditions, dressing types range from the tangy vinaigrette popular in French cuisine to creamy varieties like ranch or Caesar, often associated with American cooking. While salad dressings can add essential flavors and healthy fats from oils like olive or avocado, some may be high in calories, saturated fats, or sodium, especially store-bought versions with preservatives. Healthier options include homemade dressings with simple, fresh ingredients that allow for greater control over nutrition. Moderation is key when using dressing to balance flavor enhancement with maintaining dietary health.
