Sauces
for salads are often called "dressings". The concept of salad dressing
varies across cultures. There are many commonly used salad dressings in
North America.
Traditional dressings in southern Europe are vinaigrettes, while
mayonnaise is predominant in eastern European countries and Russia. In
Denmark, dressings are often based on crème fraîche. In
China, where Western salad is a recent adoption from Western cuisine,
the term salad dressing refers to mayonnaise or mayonnaise based
dressings. Many light edible oils are used as salad dressings,
including olive oil, corn oil, soybean oil, safflower oil, etc.
Composed salads may be bound with thick sauces such as mayonnaise.
