I usually make a small batch of any recipe first so I don't waste any ingredients. For this recipe, however, that was a waste of time because now I have to make MORE! Very tasty! The only change I made was to use fresh parsley rather than dried. I'm sure this will only get better with age! Thank you very much! - 04 May 2013
For all of the extra ingredients, this isn't much better than just using Italian dressing by itself. The vinegar is a little overpowering. The chopped basil did help a lot. - 20 Aug 2005 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
I do not know how it taste made and gave as a gift. It looks very pretty in the bottle. - 16 Jul 2008 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
