Recipe Ingredient

Basic Vinaigrette

• 2 tbsp. Red Wine Vinegar
• 1 tbsp. Dijon Mustard
• 1 tbsp. Honey
• 1/4 tsp. Salt
• 1/4 tsp. Black Pepper, ground
• 1/2 c. Olive Oil

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt and pepper.
• While whisking, add the oil very slowly. This is crucial, because if you add the oil all at once, the vinaigrette will fall apart. You need the mechanical agitation of whisking to break up the oil droplets so they can bond with the vinegar.
• After all the oil has been whisked in, continue to whisk it like crazy for about 30 seconds more.
