Put olive oil in a jar, preferably with lid.
Add vinegar.
Add spices and herbs.
Shake or whisk well, until oil and vinegar emulsify.
Serve over or toss with salads.
Comments Measurements are approximate. I just do it out of my head: I don't measure. You can adjust the vinegar to taste. Ditto the herbs and spices. And you can safely improvise (add or delete) items for subtle variation in flavor. I ALWAYS use olive oil (better for the body); but walnut oil, sesame oil, or flax oil are interesting and healthful substitutes. Play with the vinegars: there are so many different ones now in supermarkets. Rosemary garlic vinegar is great, for instance.
