A quick vinaigrette at home is worlds better and usually worlds cheaper than bottled or going out for salad. Plus, substitutions are a breeze.
If you prefer less acidic flavor, balance it by adding a bit of jam, sugar or honey. Make sherry-walnut vinaigrette with: shallot + whole grain mustard + walnut oil + sherry vinegar + chervil + finely chopped toasted walnuts.
Vinaigrette makes an ideal marinade for poultry, meat, tofu, tempeh and veggies.
