Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 0.33 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
Place the fresh raspberries in a blender or food processor.
Add the olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and water to the blender.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and fully emulsified, about 1 minute.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning or sweetness if necessary, adding a pinch more salt or a drizzle of extra honey as desired.
Optional: If a smoother texture is preferred, pour the dressing through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any raspberry seeds.
Transfer the raspberry vinaigrette to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use.
Shake or stir the dressing well before serving. Drizzle over salads, use as a marinade for grilled chicken, or as a dip for veggies.
