If you want to use fresh herbs for the vinaigrette, feel free! This salad is delicious with either fresh or dried herbs. If you’re using fresh herbs, you may want to add a little more than what the recipe calls for. Dried herbs are more concentrated, so you do not need as much as fresh herbs. A good rule of thumb is that 1 teaspoon of dried herbs is equivalent to 1 tablespoon of fresh herbs.
