The old Gary Cooper movie, Sgt. York, is a family favorite with our entire team. In one scene Ma asks the blessing and says, "Lord bless these vittles we done got...". Hence, the name of our recipe collection.

Mrs. Wuench's Salad Dressing

Mrs. Wuench

Olive Oil
Kosher Salt
Alessi Balsamic Vinegar

Pour olive oil over lettuce.  Sprinkle with a generous amount of coarse kosher salt.  Lightly pour on some balsamic vinegar.

We used to attend Dallas Reformed Baptist Church with the Wuench family.  We knew them from a previous church we both attended when we first moved to Texas.  They are a sweet family. Mrs. Wuench was the "go to" person for salad anytime we needed a salad for a meal.  Several of us ladies were finally able to watch and figure out how she did this.  It isn't hard, we just didn't have the correct ingredients!  This recipe just does not taste the same if you use a brand other than the Alessi Balsamic Vinegar.  This is a simple but delicious dressing for our salad and it is one of Hannah's all time favorites.  It tastes great on baby spinach or lettuce.
Love Always,
Mommy
