I almost forgot to add, it is crucial that one blends the recipe in a food processor to emulsify it and give it the same texture as the real deal. Seperation will be greatly reduced, with just a slight shake later for the small amount of vinegar that seperates out of both the real and knockoff versions.

After multiple trial and error attempts in comparison with the real Pine Club House Dressing, my recipe is as follows:

1.5 cups vegetable oil
.5 cup cider vinegar
.3 cup sugar

1 ts salt
2 ts garlic powder
1/8th ts white pepper

The posted prior version has way too much garlic powder, salt, and vinegar. With my version, I might tweak it at times and have slightly less oil and slightly more vinegar, but the ratio of oil to vinegar should never go below 2.5 to 1….just a shade under 3 to 1 being very, very close to the real Pine Club house dressing.

I recall a knockoff version published in the Dayton Daily News many years ago that I made, but it included a bit of white pepper. It tasted more authetic than this rendition, though this is pretty good. This is a verion I’d need to make adjustments on a bit to get it right, and maybe buy a jar of the real stuff for comparison as it’s been a number of years.
