Don’t believe the hype that every vinaigrette recipe should have one part acid to three parts oil. This more assertive ratio brings a lot more flavor to the table. Serve with Mixed Greens with Yogurt Dressing and Dill, Tomato Salad with Feta and Pistachios and Shaved Radish Salad with Walnuts and Mint.
