OK, I admit, I’m a trained chef. So I NEVER buy dressings. But as you have just seen, it’s the work of a minute or two to make a dressing. I have an old mustard jar in my fridge which I use only for dressings. Every time the jar is empty, I make a fresh dressing. You can use almost anything. Replace the vinegar with gin, or brandy. Use any of the nut oils. Or avocado oil. Add some tabasco for heat, runny honey for sweetness. A teaspoon of pesto and a splash of lemon juice gives you a light, fresh, zingy slant on the dressing. The only ingredient I never vary is some kosher salt. The rest is up to you. Try the juice and zest of a lime. Or some grappa. In less than the time it takes to grill your fish, fry your steak, or toast the bread for your pâté, you can grab your dressing jar from the fridge, and MAKE something unique, or classic, or just plain simple. Every school child should be taught how to (1) poach an egg (2) make a hearty stew (3) respect their elders, and (4) make a salad dressing. Everything else is optional.

Around 1998, I watched Jacques Pepin on a show with Julia Child and he made a simple country French vinaigrette. It was truly simple: salt and pepper sprinkled on the salad greens, then a liberal squeeze of lemon juice all-around, then a drizzle extra virgin olive oil, next he tossed and added some kind of Parmesan cheese and served. I still make my French vinaigrette that way today for my salads, except I grate pecorino Romano cheese and toss---everybody loves them!! Master Chef Jacques Pepin was my early teacher in foundational French cooking and techniques. I fell in love with cooking and creating because of him!!

His best tip is to use a dijon mustard jar after it is spent - there's just enough mustard to make the vinaigrette so there's no waste - one of my favorite Jacque Pepin tips!

I need to say it: He's perfect.

I grew up with my mom making salad dressings this way. Always with the 25/75 mix of vinegar/oil. I think it tastes so much better than the store-bought ones like Kraft. I think my favourite might be fresh dill with yogurt. The exact ratios don't even matter, they all just taste great and real.

this is so 'obvious' when you make tea/coffee. it's all about perfect ratio of tea leaves/coffee grounds to water if you do it the connoisseur way. tea too strong? dilute the tea. coffee too watery? put less water next time. i was starting to dilute orange juice concentrate, until the sweet tooth kicks in after a while.

Sometimes I throw a raw egg yolk in as it works better as an emulsifier.

msr111 The best way is to rinse out the bowl with warm water. Dry it thoroughly. Then season with a cut garlic clove. I’m still using the bowl my mother (Of blessed memory) used. It’s rosewood, and it’s at least 40 years old. My main point, however, is that metal and acid are a bad mix. This even goes for tinfoil. If you’re worried about hygiene or longevity, buy an old glass bowl, like a punch bowl or trifle dish. Glass is inert. Even if it’s lead Christal it will be fine. Just don’t drop it. Finally, shaking salad as opposed to tossing with salad servers..... if you shake the salad, you can bruise the leaves. Plus, you end up with heavy ingredients, like olives all at the bottom of the bowl. Trust me. I’m a trained chef(!)

Jacques Pepin's history, as a transplanted young chef from France, to making Howard Johnson's Restaurant menus more French in approach is just superb. I love to cook, and I learn more each and every time I watch Jacques. In the past, French and most other cuisines, were considered too complicated for the American housewife. He showed us all that it is really easy. Use good ingredients, etc., and simple prep and assembly makes it all reasonable. Also, I stopped buying salad dressings years ago. Thank you, Mr. Pepin!

Chef Pepin, many thanks for posting this video. I am not a great cook but I just made the dressing and followed your direction and added it to my garden lettuce until it just glistened. It was delicious!
