👉 The Salad Fluid, also known as Salad Oil or Dressing Oil, is a mixture of oils, typically olive oil, that serves as the base for salad dressings and marinades. It's created by emulsifying one or more oils with a small amount of acid, such as lemon juice or vinegar, and sometimes water or other liquids. This emulsification process stabilizes the mixture, preventing it from separating into oil and water phases. The resulting salad fluid is a homogeneous blend that adds flavor, texture, and moisture to salads, dressings, and marinades, enhancing the overall taste and mouthfeel of the dish.
