Does anyone have a recipe for making French Dressing?

I really enjoy my salads and fancy trying to make a dressing rather than buying it from a store.

    1/2 cup fresh lemon juice

    1 1/2 cups olive oil

    4 garlic cloves, halved

    2 teaspoons salt

    1/2 teaspoon pepper

    1 teaspoon dry mustard

    dash ground cayenne

    1/3 cup chili sauce

    1 teaspoon paprika

    2 or 3 teaspoons horseradish, if desired

    Mix all ingredients in a large jar. Cover and shake until well blended. Store in refrigerator. Makes 2 cups of French dressing.

    ___________________

    3/4 cup vegetable oil or olive oil

    1/4 cup lemon juice

    1 tablespoon sugar

    3/4 teaspoon salt

    1/4 teaspoon paprika

    1/4 teaspoon dry mustard

    1/4 teaspoon pepper

    1 clove garlic, halved

    Put all ingredients in a jar with a screw-top lid. Cover jar and shake vigorously to blend well. Chill dressing for 8 hours or overnight and remove garlic before serving. Shake well before using.

    ______________

    100 ml (3.5 fluid ounces) olive oil

    - 70 ml (2.5 fluid ounces) balsamic vinegar

    - 30 g mustard (1 ounce, or a heaping tablespoon)

    - 45 g (1.5 ounces, or a large heaping tablespoon) crème fraîche (soured cream)

    Place all ingredients in a jar or other sealed container

    Shake until all ingredients are mixed (about 1 minute of vigorous shaking for the soured cream to break down and mix in)

    To serve:

    Pour into a small bowl.

    Place a tablespoon in the bowl so that guests can spoon the dressing over their salad.

    If the oil starts to separate from the vinegar, simply stir the ingredients with the spoon until they mix again
