Absolutely Fabulous Greek Salad Dressing

This Greek salad dressing is the “secret recipe” from the pizzeria that I work at. This is the best dressing I have ever tasted, people offer to buy it constantly, but if we sold it we wouldn’t be able to make enough to use in the restaurant! The recipe makes almost a gallon but can be scaled down easily.
