Shop All Salad Dressings in Salad dressings(1000+)

Choosing the right salad dressing size depends on how often you use it and the number of people you usually serve. For occasional use or small households, smaller bottles like 8 to 12 ounces can stay fresh longer. If you enjoy salads regularly or have a larger family, larger bottles around 16 to 24 ounces offer better value. Also, consider if the dressing is refrigerated or shelf-stable, as refrigerated dressings may have shorter shelf lives once opened. Walmart offers a variety of sizes to fit different needs, making it easy to pick what works best for you.

Proper storage helps keep refrigerated salad dressings fresh and tasty. Here are some tips:

• Keep them cold: Store dressings in the refrigerator immediately after opening.
• Seal tightly: Always close the bottle cap securely to prevent contamination and spoilage.
• Check expiration: Use dressings before the expiration date and discard if you notice changes in smell, texture, or color.
• Avoid cross-contamination: Use clean utensils when serving to maintain quality.

Following these steps can help maintain the flavor and safety of your dressings.

Gluten-free salad dressings are a great option for those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. At Walmart, you can find several gluten-free options clearly labeled to help you shop confidently. These dressings avoid ingredients containing gluten, such as wheat, barley, and rye. When selecting, check the product details for gluten-free certification or labeling. Additionally, some brands offer dressings that are also dairy-free or soy-free, catering to other dietary needs. Always read the ingredient list to ensure it fits your dietary preferences.

Salad dressings can double as flavorful marinades for meats, vegetables, and tofu. Their blend of oils, acids, and seasonings helps tenderize and add taste. To use dressings as marinades:

1. Choose a dressing that complements your dish, like Italian or balsamic vinaigrette for chicken or vegetables.
2. Place your protein or veggies in a resealable bag or container and pour enough dressing to coat them evenly.
3. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to a few hours, depending on the ingredient.
4. Cook as desired, discarding leftover marinade that touched raw food.

This method adds convenience and flavor without extra prep.
