Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Garlic bulb
- 0.5 cup Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons White wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice off the top of the garlic bulb, exposing the tops of the cloves. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, wrap the bulb in aluminum foil, and place it in the oven.
Roast the garlic for 35-40 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool until it is safe to handle.
Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins into a small bowl and mash them with a fork until they form a paste.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the mashed roasted garlic, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously to create an emulsion. Add water to thin the vinaigrette to your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar or bottle with a lid. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before using.
