Salad dressing ideas

Imaginative dressings can spice up the most simple salad.  Here are some ideas from The Times online.

"Dressings and mayos add variety. Some salads — leafy ones, in particular — go limp once dressed, so put your dressing in a separate pot and add it just before you eat. Dress beans, lentils and couscous at home, so they soak up the flavours. Also remember that certain fruit and veg will brown once cut — avocado, apples, pears and celeriac — so toss the cut pieces in lemon juice to keep them fresh."
