How to Store Greek Salad Dressing
If you won’t be using this greek vinaigrette right away, store it in a glass container with a lid in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks! I have this salad dressing bottle and use it all the time. I appreciate that it is large enough to hold a batch of dressing, has a secure lid, and that the shape of the bottle (tall and skinny) fits nicely in the door of my refrigerator! However you can store it in a mason jar or another container if you wish! If you make and love our recipes, it would mean so much to me if you would leave a comment and rating!
