We have some special offers on a beautiful large wooden salad bowl from ICTC as well as a reduction on the Simplicity Glass Oil and Vinegar set.
And on the very well made and clever Collapsible Salad spinner we have a really good offer too.
SALAD DRESSING TIPS
The rule of thumb is 6 parts oil to one part vinegar or lemon juice. For a lighter dressing reduce the vinegar.
Olive oil is best but again if you want to make it a little lighter in taste mix with sunflower oil.
Always season with salt and pepper.
Always shake really well...a bottle with a screw top is best for this.
You can keep a dressing 'on the go' in the fridge and top it upa as you need.
You can add a sprig of rosemary or similar to infuse over several days.
Garlic is also a good addition as again it will infuse over several days.
Play around...invent your own recipe.

Add 2 tablespoon of olive oil which has had a squeeze of lemon juice added to it to the salad and toss well.
Sit the wedges of Feta on the top of the salad and sprinkle each wedge with Thyme or Oregano
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil across the cheese to look pretty
