Provided by sheilaolim

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 teaspoons finely minced garlic
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup hot water
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt and pepper

Tips for Making the Best Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing

  • Start with high-quality ingredients. Use a good olive oil and balsamic vinegar. You can also add other ingredients to taste, such as herbs, spices, or honey.
  • Use the right proportions. The classic ratio for balsamic vinaigrette is 3 parts oil to 1 part vinegar. However, you can adjust this ratio to taste. If you prefer a more tangy dressing, use more vinegar. If you prefer a more mellow dressing, use more oil.
  • Whisk the dressing together until it is emulsified. This means that the oil and vinegar are combined and there are no streaks of either liquid. You can whisk the dressing in a bowl or in a jar with a tight-fitting lid.
  • Let the dressing rest for a few minutes before using. This allows the flavors to meld together.
  • Store the dressing in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

    Conclusion

    Balsamic vinaigrette is a versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads, grilled vegetables, and even meat. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make the best balsamic vinaigrette dressing that you will love.
