  • dolmades aida?

  • Thanks for the video. I love making homemade vinaigrette just like the one featured. Keep the videos coming!

  • OK, now she needs to do one on making mayonnaise. Lots of questions on the boards about home made mayonnaise.

  • excellent video

  • Aida, you are so cute, what a great website and thanks for the tips.

  • Any thoughts on blending vinaigrettes? My husband doesn't like the "water-y" consistency and when I blended it using a stick-blender he loved the thickness. Just wondering if there are any downsides to that...

  • More Aida!!!

  • Very good format and easy to follow!!!

  • Yes, good stuff :o)

  • I like the video. Informative, not condescending, and Aida is charming as well.
