Morphology
The meaning 'a cold sauce served with salads' is directly and transparently composed from 'salad' (a cold dish of vegetables) + 'dressing' (a sauce for salads), so a B1 learner who knows both words can infer the compound meaning. This noun+noun composition is common cross-linguistically and follows ordinary morphological patterns, making it immediately comprehensible.
Etymology
Salad dressing comes from the simple image of dressing a salad, like putting clothes on someone. Chefs 'dress' a salad by pouring a sauce over it, so salad dressing means the sauce used to flavor the salad.
