Salad Dressing Help
As "from scratch" as I try to cook, I never attempt salad dressings or vinaigrettes. To be honest, the olive oil I buy is pretty crappy and cheap and I've always assumed that it would make my vinaigrette taste horribly. Once, I made aioli with really cheap olive oil and I had to throw the entire thing out because it tasted horrible.
Anyhow, I need a dressing or vinaigrette for a baby spinach, mushroom and pecorino salad. I'm willing to buy a decent bottle of olive oil, if necessary.
Also, someone please give me a mini lesson on olive oil. There's olive oil, virgin, and extra virgin, right? What kind do I use for what application, or does that not matter? For example, could I dress a salad with the same kind of olive oil I'd cook with?
Thanks in advance!
