Recipe Notes / Tips
  • Dried herbs? Yes, you can use them, it’s just a different thing than fresh. I think of fresh herbs in summer, dried in winter. When I use dried, I stick with the basics, parsley and chives, and keep the quantity to a max 1 tablespoon for this amount of dressing.
  • Frozen herbs? Sure! Scrape at them with a fork to get little pieces.
