We asked Chef Mario for a recipe that he thinks is best when enjoyed during the summer season. He handed us his recipe for Champagne Dressing, and told us that, “This is a dressing that you can easily drizzle on top of any fresh ingredient and enhance the dish. It is a sweet acidity, that goes great with summer fare.”
