Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon dried basil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the red wine vinegar and Dijon mustard. Whisk until the mustard is fully dissolved into the vinegar.
Add the honey and minced garlic to the bowl. Continue to whisk until all ingredients are well combined.
Gradually pour in the extra-virgin olive oil in a slow, steady stream while whisking continuously. This will help emulsify the dressing, making it smooth and cohesive.
Add dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to the mixture. Whisk again until the seasonings are evenly distributed.
Taste the vinaigrette and adjust the salt, pepper, or honey to suit your personal preferences.
Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar or small container with a lid for storage. Shake well before use to ensure the ingredients are well mixed.
This vinaigrette can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
