Steps:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the shallots, vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt; let the mixture stand 10 minutes. Whisk in the mustard, then add the oil in a very slow, thin, steady stream, whisking constantly until the dressing is emulsified. Season with fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. DO AHEAD: The vinaigrette can be prepared ahead and refrigerated, in an airtight container, up to 1 week.
Tips:
- Choose the Right Mustard: Not all mustards are created equal. For a classic vinaigrette, Dijon mustard is a great option. It has a sharp, tangy flavor that pairs well with the other ingredients. Whole-grain mustard adds a bit of texture and a more robust flavor. Spicy brown mustard can add a kick of heat. Sweet mustard, like honey mustard, can balance out the acidity of the vinegar.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your vinaigrette will taste. Use extra-virgin olive oil for the best flavor. Freshly squeezed lemon juice will add a bright, citrusy note. And freshly chopped herbs, like chives, parsley, or tarragon, will add a pop of color and flavor.
- Emulsify the Vinaigrette: To create a smooth and creamy vinaigrette, you need to emulsify it. This means whisking the ingredients together vigorously until they come together and form a thick, creamy dressing. You can also use a blender or food processor to emulsify the vinaigrette.
- Taste and Adjust: Once you've made your vinaigrette, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or vinegar to taste. If you want a sweeter vinaigrette, add a little honey or maple syrup. If you want a more herbaceous vinaigrette, add more chopped herbs.
Conclusion:
With these tips in mind, you can make a delicious and versatile mustard vinaigrette that will elevate any salad or dish. Experiment with different types of mustard, vinegars, and herbs to create your own unique vinaigrette. Once you've mastered the basics, you can start experimenting with different flavor combinations to create vinaigrettes that are perfect for any occasion.
