IDENTIFY THE DIFFERENT KINDS OF SALAD DRESSINGS
2.5 INGREDIENTS
AND THEIR
Ingredients of Salad Dressing
Salad dressings are liquid, or semi liquids used to flavor salads. The flavors
of most salad dressings are not modified by cooking. The quality depends
directly on the quality of the ingredients used.
Most salad dressings are made primarily of an oil and an acid with other
ingredients added to modify the flavor or texture.
1. Oils – should have mild, sweet flavor. Strongly flavored oil can make excellent
salad dressing but not appropriate with every food. Examples: corn oil, soybean
oil, canola oil, peanut oil, olive oil, walnut oil.
2. Vinegar – should have a good, clean sharp flavor. Most salad vinegar are
about 5% acidity, but some range as 7-8%.
3. Lemon Juice – fresh lemon juice maybe used in place of or in addition to
vinegar in some preparation.
4. Egg yolk – as essential ingredient in mayonnaise and other emulsifier
dressings. For safety, pasteurized eggs should be used
5. Seasoning and flavorings – fresh herbs are preferable to dried herbs. Other
flavorings include mustard, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and various kinds of
cheeses
1. Oil and Vinegar dressings – Basic vinaigrette is a simple mixture of oil, vinegar
and seasonings which is an example of temporary emulsions. The ratio of oil to
vinegar is 3 parts oils to 1-part vinegar. However, it can be changed to taste.
Less oil makes the dressing more tart, while more oil makes it taste milder and
oilier.
2. Emulsified Dressings – Mayonnaise is an emulsified dressing. It is more often
serves as the base for wide variety of other dressings. Mayonnaise based
dressings are generally thick and creamy
3. Other Dressings – cooked salad dressing is similar with appearance to
mayonnaise, but it has a tarter flavor, while mayonnaise is richer and milder.
Cooked dressing is made with little or no oil and with a starch thickener.
There are variety of dressings based on neither mayonnaise nor oil and
vinegar. They include dressings on sour cream and on fruit juice and yogurt and
low-calorie dressings. The important thing is that these dressings should have
well balanced flavor with a pleasant tartness and should harmonize and
complement the salad which they are served.
