To Make a Salad: In salad bowl, combine 1 tablespoon Perfect Vinaigrette Base, 1 tablespoon water, 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper.
-
Add 6 cups torn salad greens (and a small chopped tomato, if desired).
-
Toss together and taste.
-
Now, here's the big secret: If dressing seems too strong, add another 1-2 tablespoons water (mild greens will need the extra water).
-
And another hint -- use a mild olive oil with mild greens, and a more assertive olive oil with robust greens.
