Elevate your salads and marinades with this vibrant Honey Mustard Raspberry Vinaigrette—an irresistible blend of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors. Fresh, juicy raspberries take center stage, perfectly balanced with the subtle heat of Dijon mustard, the golden sweetness of honey, and the bright acidity of white wine vinegar. Emulsified with silky olive oil, this dressing has a luxuriously creamy texture, while a pinch of salt and pepper rounds out the flavor. With just 10 minutes of prep and no cooking required, this homemade vinaigrette is as quick as it is delicious. Perfect for drizzling over crisp greens, paired with grilled chicken, or used as a dipping sauce, it brings a gourmet touch to any dish. For an added bonus, it’s easy to customize by adjusting the thickness with a splash of water. Your salads will never be boring again!
Rinse the fresh raspberries in cold water and drain them thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris.
In a blender or food processor, combine the raspberries, Dijon mustard, honey, and white wine vinegar.
Blend the mixture until smooth, which should take about 1 to 2 minutes.
Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuing to blend at a low speed. This will help emulsify the vinaigrette, giving it a smooth and creamy texture.
Taste the vinaigrette and season with salt and black pepper according to your preference. Blend briefly to combine.
If the dressing is too thick, add water 1 tablespoon at a time, blending after each addition, until you reach your desired consistency.
Transfer the vinaigrette to a sealed jar or container and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld, though it can be used immediately if needed.
Shake or stir before serving to ensure the ingredients are well combined.
