  RE: GARLIC CONCERNS, this recipe contains oil AND vinegar. vinegar is a fairly strong acid that kills bacteria, the idea behind pickles, which often contain garlic.totally different than oil alone,which can be dangerous, unless mixture heated to kill bacteria like botulism. - 1/16/12

  love love!
  
  A while back, I started to save my glass bottles of finished salad dressings so I could begin making my own and have something pretty to put them in. Yup! - 3/8/12

  Here in Spain, people put olive oil that has garlic in it on their toast in the morning...it is delicious. And the containers of oil with garlic sit out, as far as I know there have been no botulism incidents. They don´t put eggs in the fridge either, though. - 6/18/12

  This was fabulous. I make a lot of on-the-spur-of-the-moment dressings (no recipe) but this one is a keeper! Love that the mustard keeps the dressing from separating too quickly! - 1/6/13

  I make this all the time however; I use splenda 1-2 teaspoons add water as well, leave out the salt, add some fresh parsley. Dry mustard works well. Don't need use that much Olive oil. Use an immersion stick to blend. Store in a mason jar. - 10/22/12

  I buy pre-chopped garlic in olive oil off the store shelf all the time. I keep it in the fridge. Never had a problem.
  
  Where did that concern come from? - 10/4/12

  I think I will try to increase the Balsamic and reduce the olive oil to cut down on the calories. Will post the results. - 10/3/12

  This sounds fabulous, and, best of all, I have all of the ingredients on hand -- I'm going to mix some up and give it a try tonight! (I don't think keeping this in the fridge for a week or so would be an issue; and the garlic could always be roasted first for anyone still concerned about that). - 10/3/12

  Good
  
  For years my family has combined olive oil and garlic without issue. The dressing is good with ingredients I always have on hand and relatively low sodium compared with store salad dressings. overall a winner - 8/10/12

  I also read about the olive oil and garlic. I am going to check WEBMD and see if there is answer. - 8/10/12

  I've stored Garlic in oil in the refrigerator before and have had no problems. Granted the dressings were polished off within 2 wks of being stored but haven't had any problems. - 1/16/12

  Optimist1948 is right you cannot store garlic in oil in the refrigerator, it promotes the growth of the botulism bacteria whish is extremely dangerous. - 1/16/12

  I thought there was a problem leaving garlic in oil. Botulism maybe? - 1/4/12
