Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 small Shallot (finely minced)
- 1 clove Garlic (finely minced or grated)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh herbs (optional, finely chopped, such as parsley or chives)
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced shallot, and minced garlic until thoroughly combined.
Slowly drizzle in the extra-virgin olive oil while continuously whisking to emulsify the mixture. This will create a smooth and creamy vinaigrette base.
Season the vinaigrette with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary to suit your preference.
If desired, stir in finely chopped fresh herbs such as parsley or chives to add a hint of freshness to the vinaigrette.
Transfer the vinaigrette to a small jar or container with a tight-fitting lid for storage, or use immediately to dress your favorite salad or steamed vegetables.
Store any leftover vinaigrette in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before each use as natural separation may occur.
