    How important is the white wine champagne vinegar? Can any other vinegar be substituted? I’m having a hard time finding white wine champagne vinegar in my local stores and don’t want to order online for just one recipe. Otherwise, the recipe is awesome!

    I love Ott’s dressing on cabbage. A STL area bottled dressing. If you freeze this dressing doesn’t it go soggy?
