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…:)

This is a little like a preserved lemon dressing-do you have preserved lemons in Greece? It looks really interesting, cinnamon and lemon? I never would have thought of that one Sophie! Thanks for sharing 🙂
