Comments: Whenever you want a salad with the pungent, gingery flavors of the Far East, this is the dressing to use.
For Greek salad: olive oil, lemon juice (to taste) and 1 heaping teaspoon of crushed, dried mint leaves.
For orange almond salad: olive oil, Heinz taragon vinegar (to taste). Use greens of your choice, and top salad with mandarin orange wedges and blanched almond slivers that have been lightly toasted in a pan with a little oil.
