1) A type of sauce prepared for salads that usually has a vinegar and oil base with the addition of herbs and spices.

2) Dressing is also a name given to a variety of seasoned ingredients, such as bread cubes, eggs, nuts, dried fruits, sausage bits, and herbs that are made as a side dish to be served with meat, poultry, fish, or seafood. Dressing may also be referred to as stuffing, which typically includes the same ingredients, but is baked by placing the ingredients into the body cavity of poultry, or into pieces of meat, seafood, or vegetables and then baked within the food it is stuffed into.
