About this deal
Many dressing containers have printed-on measurement lines. These are great for making homemade dressings because you won’t need to dirty any measuring cups or spoons. Look for a well-designed salad dressing container with convenience features like a wide spout and a dishwasher-safe construction. You may also want to consider other elements, like whether or not the vessel has measurement markings on the side, since this can also greatly add to the ease of use. If you like all types of dressing and plan to change it up, look for a container with a medium-sized spout or a squeeze-bottle-style container. Size You can certainly make salad dressing by shaking it in any convenient sealed container, but the Whiskware Salad Dressing Shaker makes the process faster and easier. It includes a round stainless steel wire ball that acts like a whisk right inside the container. Since it’s blended more efficiently, dressings stay emulsified longer. We put this claim to the test by making the same Simple Italian Salad Dressing in the Whiskware and a standard dressing shaker. We found the dressing in the regular container lost emulsification after 17 minutes and began separating while the dressing in the Whiskware remained fully emulsified for an additional 51 minutes.
The spout opens easily with one hand and closes automatically when released, eliminating accidental spills. We also loved the controlled flow of the dressing the pour spout afforded. The lid is best washed by hand so you can get into all the nooks and crannies, but we put both top and bottom through a dishwasher cycle and were impressed that all parts of the container were thoroughly cleaned. Built-in mixers come in all shapes. Some utilize a simple mixer ball that you can drop in before you shake the bottle. Other types are connected to the lid and contain moving parts. Avoid using plastic wrap on or inside the container during microwave use. The plastic wrap could heat, melt, and adhere to the container walls.
