a careless whisper of garlic

[@simonknox5580]

Made this to take away for our weeks camping and it lifted the salads to another level. 😊

[@BruceBoschek]

Nice and simple. I tried it with walnut and rape seed oil on lamb's (field) lettuce. It was very good. Thanks for reminding us how simple good cooking can be.

[@asselshigayeva7240]

I tried to make it and its absolutely delicious! Thank you !

[@qwarzelzwerg]

replace the sugar with the same amount (2tbsp) of real organic honey
way more healthy and more body for your dressing (my opinion)!
and go on and try different sorts of vinegar. there are a lot of great fruity variants out there, that are just delicious. same for the oils (walnut, hazelnut ...)
big thumbs up for the video

[@tompathomsen]

[@TheSaraCallan]

Oh Gill

[@aliciaseecharan]

Hi! I don’t make it with sugar or garlic. I like using fresh parsley or dried bouquet garni. Never thought of garlic, I’ll try it with the garlic. Good video. Happy New Year :)

[@hydgurl77]

whisper of garlic... love the way you said it🤗 can I use dijon mustard instead

[@Baetzibaer]

Dijon mustard is what he said ...

[@deniseherud]

Lovely! Can't wait to try this👍🏻

[@fdama]

Thanks. But mine wasn’t sharp enough. I think it’s because of the cheaper Waitrose “essential” white wine vinegar.

[@FittedHeat]

Gil, come party with me at my crib. Bring the dressing too

[@clemrumley9691]

can i use honey instead of sugar thanks

[@82olys]

Did Gill make some sort of pact with the devil where he never ages?

[@Sharperthanu1]

In North America French salad dressing has a lot of PAPRIKA in it an has a RED color to it

[@forevayoung7849]

substitute for olive oil?

[@georgezgreek]

Avocado oil

[@ChanTheManwithaPlan91]

Why sunflower oil as well? I usually just use extra virgin olive oil but if I'm missing out on something then could someone fill me in?

[@georgezgreek]

Some olive oios are strong in taste , guessing the sunflower oil was to even it out.

[@anguruso]

Dessert spoon? How many spoons does this guy think I have?!

[@ritagaston1556]

Crazy. Never heard of sugar in any French (or Italian) dressing. Yuck
Do you work for sugar industry.

[@georgezgreek]

Why knock it if you havent tried it? Dont be so negative

[@Baetzibaer]

Where there's vinegar there's sugar ...

[@susanfitch8698]

Seriously …… sunflower noooooooo

[@GreenNastyRabbit]

Olive oil doesn't go with Mustard…… it creates a bitter taste…

[@georgezgreek]

Depends on the olive oil

[@Baetzibaer]

Only for green nasty rodents ...
