Notes

If looking for a nut-free option, then try making it with sunflower seed or pumpkin seed butter.
Choosing a high-quality balsamic vinegar can make a big difference in the flavor of this dressing. Look for a traditional balsamic vinegar that was aged for a while (opposed to a commercial balsamic vinegar).
