Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 0.25 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 0.75 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoon sugar
Instructions
In a small bowl or jar, combine the red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, fine sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and sugar.
Gradually whisk in the olive oil and vegetable oil while continuously stirring, allowing the mixture to emulsify. Alternatively, you can put all the ingredients in a jar, seal the lid tightly, and shake vigorously until well combined.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasonings if necessary. Add a touch more salt, vinegar, or sugar to balance the flavors to your preference.
Once thoroughly mixed, transfer the dressing to an airtight container or small jar. Store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Before serving, give the dressing another good shake or stir as it may naturally separate over time.
Drizzle generously over your Cobb salad and enjoy the authentic, bold flavors of this classic dressing!
