Let it sit. Also you could use the method "separation by density",which is were heterogeneous mixtures are separated on the basis of particle density.At medical places they use a machine called centrifuge when you get blood pulled. More dense materials move to the bottom and less dense plasma moves to the top.

Why do you have to shake oil and vinegar salad dressing?
Oil and vinegar do not mix, which is to say, they are not mutually soluble. When you put the two of these together in one container, you get two separate layers; the vinegar on the bottom and the oil floating on top. So if you would like to have a mixture of oil and vinegar on your salad, you have to shake the bottle first. Because one is water based and one is oil based so they don't form a combined solution. You have to shake them to form an emulsion of small droplets of oil susoended in the vinegar. If you didn't shake them they would remain as two separate liquids.
