How long can you refrigerate this dressing?

Stored in an airtight container, this dressing will stay fresh in the fridge for up to 1 week. Just give it a good shake before using it to redistribute the ingredients. The oil will solidify when you store it in the refrigerator, but it will come to a liquid again at room temperature.

How can I add more flavor?

I love to add minced garlic cloves or minced shallots for a punchy, slightly sweet taste. You can also incorporate extra seasonings like dried oregano, Greek seasoning, or Italian seasoning. Or, include fresh herbs, feta, or Parmesan cheese.
