Homemade Greek Salad Dressing - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use fresh oregano, but reduce the amount by half since dried herbs are more concentrated. Use 1 tablespoon fresh oregano for every 1 teaspoon dried.
Store the dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Shake or stir well before using, as separation is natural.
Yes, this dressing is naturally vegan as it contains no animal products—just herbs, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, and seasonings.
Absolutely! Simply omit the garlic, or replace it with a pinch of garlic powder for a subtle flavor without the sharpness.
White wine vinegar or red wine vinegar (about 2 tablespoons) makes a good substitute for lemon juice while keeping a bright, tangy flavor.
Freezing is not recommended, as the olive oil may separate and the texture could change. Refrigeration works best for short-term storage.
Balance the tartness by adding a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup, or use a little less lemon juice next time.
Try it as a marinade for grilled chicken, a drizzle over roasted vegetables, or as a dip for warm pita bread.
