A clear glass jar filled with Brown Derby Old-Fashioned French Dressing sits on a rustic wooden table. The dressing is a rich reddish-brown color with a smooth, glossy texture. A small portion of the dressing is poured into a rustic ceramic bowl beside the jar. Surrounding the jar are fresh ingredients, including a lemon wedge, a garlic clove, a bottle of olive oil, and a small dish of ground black pepper. A folded linen napkin and a wooden spoon complete the inviting, homemade presentation. Soft natural light highlights the vibrant color of the dressing.
