Notes

To accurately taste salad dressing, drizzle a small amount onto a leaf, then adjust seasoning to taste.
If substituting, the pomegranate molasses with one of the suggestions, mix it with a small amount of vinegar. You can use goji berries (soaked in hot water and drained) instead of pomegranate seeds.
