Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
In a small bowl or a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the ingredients together (or, if using a jar, secure the lid and shake vigorously) until the mixture is well blended.
Gradually add the olive oil in a slow, steady stream, whisking constantly to emulsify the vinaigrette. If using a jar, add the olive oil, secure the lid, and shake until the dressing is smooth and emulsified.
Taste the vinaigrette and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Serve immediately over salads or store in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before each use.
