By the way, I don’t see pectin in the recipe’s list of ingredients and, actually, I think the dressing will turn out just fine with the ingredients shown. The pectin would thicken the sauce a little, depending on the amount you are supposed to use. You could mix a little gelatin with water to have the same effect.
