Salad dressing is a versatile blend of ingredients used to enhance the flavor of salads. It typically includes a balance of oils, such as olive or vegetable oil, and acids like vinegar or lemon juice. Common varieties also incorporate seasonings, herbs, and sweeteners, while creamy dressings may include yogurt, mayonnaise, or buttermilk. Originating from various global cuisines, from Mediterranean vinaigrettes to American ranch and creamy Caesar, salad dressings offer diverse flavor profiles. Nutritional aspects vary; vinaigrettes made with olive oil provide heart-healthy fats, while citrus-based dressings are often lower in calories. However, some creamy dressings can be high in saturated fats and added sugars if consumed in excess. Choosing simple, minimally processed options or making your own dressing can help maintain a healthy balance. Always check serving sizes, as even nutrient-rich dressings can contribute extra calories when overused.
