Kitchen times are approximate and will depend on various factors, like your personal kitchen speed and how many hands you have working with you. Cooking can become a centering experience that brings family together. I hope you enjoy the ride!This dressing can be stored in a sealed jar in the fridge for several days. The dressing tends to thicken in the fridge, so add more water to achieve desired consistency if needed.
