How long can I keep this dressing in the fridge?

The dressing can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. Always check for any off smells or changes in texture before using. If it starts to separate, simply stir it well before serving.

Is this dressing suitable for vegetarians?

Yes, this recipe is vegetarian-friendly, as it contains no meat products. However, if you are serving it to strict vegetarians, ensure that the Romano cheese used is rennet-free, as some cheeses may contain animal-derived rennet.
