For a lighter dressing, substitute half of the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or sour cream. Experiment with different types of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar or white balsamic vinegar, to add a unique twist to the flavor profile. If you prefer a thicker dressing, gradually whisk in a small amount of olive oil until you reach your desired consistency. Toasted poppy seeds intensify their nutty flavor. Toast them in a dry pan over medium heat for a few minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant. This dressing can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
