I believe the answer is:

french dressing

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'in salad' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'gallic bandage' is the wordplay.
'gallic' becomes 'French' (I've seen this before).
'bandage' becomes 'dressing' (I've seen this before).
'french'+'dressing'='FRENCH DRESSING'

'found' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for french dressing that I've seen before include "haute couture?" , "vinaigrette!'" , "Something going on salad" , "Maybe relish" , "sauce for salad" .)
