Notes
- Whisk the base first: Mixing the yogurt, mayo, vinegar, Dijon, and oil first helps the dressing turn smooth before the seasonings go in.
- Let it chill: Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes so the Italian seasoning hydrates and the flavor tastes more balanced.
- Taste after chilling: The vinegar and salt can mellow as it rests, so do a final taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Thin if needed: If it thickens in the fridge, whisk in a small splash of water to loosen it.
- Use a jar for easy mixing: A jar makes it simple to shake, store, and re-mix right before serving.
