Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while continuously whisking to emulsify the vinaigrette.
Add the ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Whisk again until fully incorporated.
Stir in the chopped fresh cilantro until evenly distributed throughout the vinaigrette.
Allow the vinaigrette to sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar or container with a tight-fitting lid. Shake well before each use.
