Homemade Olive Oil & Lemon Dressing (Ladolemono)

I love salad dressings, they always gives your food and tastebuds a special surprise.  🙂  This is a very old salad dressing recipe which I have made quite often.  What makes this dressing even stronger is that once all the ingredients are combined it needs to be set aside for about a week.  Once opened the dressing becomes a wonderful explosion of taste, the combination of Cinnamon, Lemon and Coriander packed in a jar with Olive Oil.  🙂

This dressing is not only used for salads, but can transform into a delicious baste for  poultry, meats and fish while grilling or oven baking.  I use it on salads and I also use it to marinade chicken overnight…:)
