For a richer flavor, use a high-quality, smoked bacon. Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking, depending on the tartness of the vinegar. If you don't have white wine vinegar, apple cider vinegar can be substituted. For a vegetarian option, replace the bacon with smoked paprika and sautéed mushrooms.

Jan 29, 2024I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. I sometimes add a splash of Dijon mustard to the dressing for extra tang.
