Sweet and Sour Salad Dressing Recipe
Before I opened my restaurant many years ago I was determined to develop the perfect Sweet
Sour Salad Dressing to use as my House Dressing. I did it!
It would not be much of an over-statement to say that this
House restaurant salad dressing is partly responsible for the
success of my restaurant. From the first day I opened and
served the salad dressing with a variety of restaurant salads, it
became one of my talked about signature restaurant recipes.
Not only is this a favorite restaurant salad dressing, my
customers like using it as a dip for vegetable platters.
In fact, they love using it this way, too.
Enjoy your House restaurant salad dressing and the company of those you share it with and
remember, this is the first time I have ever published this secret restaurant recipe!
