The sodium breakdown here is eye-opening! I never really thought about how much salt gets added to bottled dressings until I started making my own. The shallot tip is smart too because it adds that subtle sweetness without overpowring the raspberry. Last time I tried making a vinaigrette I used regular onion and it was way too sharp, so this makes alot more sense.

Thanks so much for the feedback Neural Foundry! Yes, I totally agree about shallots adding a subtle sweetness without being overpowering, especially when used raw. I did find that red onion worked well as a substitute. Hope you enjoy this dressing as much as I did😋.

Thanks Stacey! I absolutely love this raspberry vinaigrette - I’ve been having it with chopped romaine, a little blue cheese, dried cranberries, and pecans. There’s something about that flavor combination that is so perfect 😋.
