My “secret” salad dressing is Samin Nosrat’s tomato vinaigrette, a dressing so good (especially in the late summer with great tomatoes) that I will literally drink it. Honestly, every salad dressing in Salt Fat Acid Heat is fantastic.

I have two sets - an oblong set for spice jars and a round set for liquids. They are the ones recommended by Serious Eats and I love them both. Oblong can’t go in the dishwasher, which is the use case for the round ones, as I hate hand washing and avoid it as much as possible.

Claire, just want to make sure you’re aware of the very important fact that you can buy and have priority shipped to you bagels from St Viateur in Montreal. As a woman of taste, I hope you agree that Montreal bagels are the superior bagel and for a moderate shipping fee you can be the proud owner of some.
