Answer 1

I've got a few vegan dressing recipes here for you. What makes dressings creamy generally is the addition of mustard and then emulsifying it with the oil by whisking it.

* 1 clove garlic, halved

Put all ingredients in a jar with a screw-top lid. Cover jar and shake vigorously to blend well. Chill dressing for 8 hours or overnight and remove garlic before serving. Shake well before using.

Tahini "Goddess" Dressing

* 1 tbsp sugar
* 1/2 cup oil

PREPARATION:
Add all the ingredients, except for the oil to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth and creamy. Slowly add oil until well mixed. Dressing will be thick, but you can always add a bit more water if you prefer a thinner consistency.

Answer 2

You've certainly gotten a number of good salad dressing recipes, but have you ever tried just plain fresh lemon juice or lemon juice mixed with a little olive oil. The lemon juice is quite good on green salads and obviously has no calories. Here is a quick salad dressing for Caesar salad. Ingredients: 2 cloves garlic 1 tbsp lemon juice 1 tsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce 1 tsp onion powder 1 tsp Dijon mustard 1/2 cup olive oil dash salt (optional) Preparation: Place all ingredients except oil in a blender or food processor. Turn the machine on, and slowly add the oil, processing until dressing is smooth and creamy.

Answer 3

I have no clue about the dressing itself (although it does sound absolutely wonderful), but I can tell you one of the most common thickening agents used in cooking (regardless) is corn starch.

A little corn starch (like a teaspoon per bottle of dressing) will make something thick over time, as it sets. It's commonly used in heated dishes, but you can use corn starch in cold things too (such as salad dressings).

You might try experimenting with that. =D
