The useful answer

Olive Oil Dressing and the low FODMAP diet

Olive oil dressing combines extra virgin oil with vinegar, herbs, and sometimes mustard for a light and stable topping. Pure oil and vinegar contain zero fermentable carbohydrates and remain highly compatible with sensitive digestion. Commercial preparations occasionally add sugar, onion powder, or wheat thickeners to balance acidity and extend shelf life. Those managing ITS should verify ingredient simplicity before incorporating into recipes. Preparing a homemade version ensures full transparency and predictable tolerance.

Preparation & context

What can change the result?

Whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, and a pinch of sea salt for balanced herbal richness. Avoid adding honey or sugar to maintain predictable fructose levels and prevent unexpected digestive reactions. Shake vigorously before each use to temporarily recombine separated oils and ensure even coating on greens.
