Question:

Why do you need to heat the marinated dressing for a salad?


Answers:
If you are using the liquid you marinated raw meat, poultry, fish, or pork in, It needs to be heated to a temp. of 165 degrees to kill bacteria and prevent cross contamination. If the dressing is to be served cold, place the hot marinade in a metal mixing bowl and place the bowl in a larger container of ice and stir it to chill it.

I'm not sure what you mean exactly.
If you plan on using the marinade that you have meat in you cannot use that as a dressing. It is tainted with raw meat bacteria.

dressings for salads are usually cold unless the recipe calls for a warm dressing.

I can't be certain without seeing the recipe, but some of them have to cook to "marry" the flavors together, and to keep it from separating.
