In reply to Tracy Grove. I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much, Tracy! I honestly can't remember where I found this jar. It may have been a local craft shop. I look for these kinds of things whenever I go in those types of stores. I'm sorry I can't point you right to the place to get one. :(

Made this dressing and loved it! Now all I need is that perfect shaped jar. Where can I find the exact jar?

I made this dressing yesterday to add into my pasta salad. It was the best tasting Italian dressing I’ve ever had. Thick and rich and rich, the flavor really held up in the pasta.

I love this recipe. I love love love cheese, but cannot tolerate cow’s milk (not in the US, at least, don’t know why but it’s an allergy, not lactose intolerance). Sheep and goat milk don’t bother me, though, so I used peccorino romano (a sheep’s milk cheese- it’s what peccorino means) cheese instead of parmesean and it was delicious.

This dressing recipe looks amazing. I’m going to try it. I’ve been using the store bought packet seasoning but I don’t like all those preservative ingredients. I love watching your YouTube videos and love the funny bloopers at the end. Keep up the good work. You are amazing!!!

I just tried this tonight without the parmesan because I didn’t have any on hand. This was the best homemade vinaigrette dressing I’ve ever tasted. Very flavorful.

This is the best Italian dressing. I have always bought bottled (the restaurant brand) but thought I should try this and I’m so glad I did. I made a pasta salad last week for a family reunion and used this dressing on it and it was delicious, lots of compliments.

This is delicious and will be my new go-to Italian salad dressing. Your recipes are always such a hit, that I never need to “test” them before serving guests. However, I made a salad yesterday for myself and as I went back for a seconds, I remembered that I had forgotten to add the parmesan cheese. It was delicious without it. I followed the recipe exactly as written for the rest of the ingredients. Thank you for another fabulous recipe!

In reply to Jackie. Hi Jackie! You can swap the lemon juice with vinegar you will just lose a bit of the depth of flavor. :)

In reply to Jackie. Hi Jackie! You can substitute it with more vinegar, but you won't get the same depth of flavor. :)

very good made exactly as written it was delicious, do think leaving out the 1Tab. lemon juice would dramatically change the flavor I don’t always have them on hand, would I add another Tab. vinegar?? Love so many of your recipes Thanks Jackie

how important is the lemon juice in this recipe?
