followed one of those tiktok recipes to make a salad dressing from scratch with some Greek yogurt, lemon juice, whole grain mustard, honey, garlic and olive oil. Im Not the best at cooking so this accomplishment has had me on a rush the past two days. It’s a good a** dressing.

Most sauces/dressings are pretty simple recipes using super common ingredients you already have at home! Or, if you’re more lax like me, you can throw some veggies in a blender with a fatty liquid base and an acid like lemon juice and make your own variation of a green goddess that literally tastes amazing on anything. Making my own sauces has made me a much more confident home cook!!

These are the things I needed to make really good salads at home:
- a really big salad bowl for optimum tossing (I got mine from IKEA)
- salad tossers (or just use tongs, but make sure you get it all tossed for optimum salad)
- really good extra virgin olive oil (I almost never buy pre made dressing as this is the basis for all the dressings I like)
This is what I put in:
- leaves
- crunch
- flavoursome/textural difference
- dressing
- acid
- weight
Some examples:
- leaves: spinach, rocket, watercress
- crunch: thinly sliced radishes and celery, roasted chickpeas, roasted tenderstem brocolli, charred corn, apple
- flavoursome/textural variation: chunks of goats cheese, shavings of parmesan, avocado, olives, mint, basil
- dressing: olive oil, garlic salt, black pepper, chilli flakes, wholegrain mustard, balsamic vinegar glaze, hummus
- acid: a squeeze of lemon, orange zest
- weight: puy lentils, couscous, pasta, croutons
If you get a good amount of textural and flavour variation you're in for a good time. Just try out different combinations til you find what works for you! I also like to chop the leaves a little bit to get a nice balanced forkful of bits and leaves

I used to think only losers would pay for balcony seats at a concert venue instead of being up close but likeee the air ventilation is so much better and you dont get stomped on and there’s usually another bar up there so it’s a win all across the board 💋
