Pescatarian Herb & Garlic Italian Dressing
Bright, herby, and layered with Mediterranean warmth, this homemade dressing is the kind of thing that makes a simple salad feel like a proper meal. Extra-virgin olive oil forms the silky base, while apple cider vinegar and fresh lemon juice bring just the right amount of tang to keep every bite lively. A full lineup of dried herbs — oregano, basil, thyme, and rosemary — gives it that classic Italian character, and a pinch of ground ginger and turmeric add a subtle, unexpected depth that store-bought versions never quite manage. The honey rounds everything out without making it sweet, just balanced. Whisking the oil in slowly creates a beautifully emulsified dressing that clings to greens, grilled fish, roasted vegetables, or anything else you want to drizzle it over. It keeps in the fridge for up to a week, so you can make a jar on Sunday and have something genuinely delicious ready to go all week long.
