Ingredients:
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup white wine vinegar or red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons water
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon sugar (optional)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional for heat)
Directions:
Combine Vinegar and Spices: In a bowl or a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the white wine vinegar (or red wine vinegar), water, minced garlic, oregano, basil, sugar (if using), salt, black pepper, thyme, parsley, onion powder, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir or shake well to mix.

Add Olive Oil: Gradually add the olive oil to the vinegar and spice mixture, whisking continuously to emulsify. If using a jar, you can add the olive oil, secure the lid, and shake vigorously.

Taste and Adjust: Taste the dressing and adjust the seasonings if necessary. For a more robust flavor, you can add a bit more of any of the herbs or spices.

Chill: For the best flavor, refrigerate the dressing for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.

Serve: Shake or stir the dressing well before serving. Drizzle over your favorite salads, use it as a marinade for chicken or vegetables, or add a splash to sandwiches for extra flavor.

Store: Keep the Italian Dressing in the refrigerator in a sealed container or jar. It should stay fresh for up to 2 weeks.

Enjoy your homemade Italian Dressing, a versatile and flavorful addition to any meal that brings the essence of Italian cuisine to your table with every bite.
