Notes
Use cold water. The use of cold water helps make this dressing more creamy and fluffy. I like to place an ice cube in a cup of water to keep it chilled while gathering my ingredients. It usually melts by the time I’m ready to use it.
Slowly pour in your water. Pour a small amount into your dressing at a time and mix to combine. If you add too much at once you might end up with a really thin dressing.
Taste and adjust as you go. When you mix everything together, give your dressing a taste. Based on your ingredients, you may need to add more vinegar or a little more syrup or even a pinch of salt to help bring more of the flavors together.
