MANGIA MANGIA BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE ON BABY GREENS



Mangia Mangia Balsamic Vinaigrette on Baby Greens image

Says Chef Eliot Barton of Mangia Mangia restaurant in Key West, "This is the only dressing available at Mangia Mangia." He recommends using high quality vinegars and olive oils and adds, "The little bit of water reduces acidity but retains the fine flavor of the vinegar. Inexpensive vinegars are already too diluted. Look for vinegars in the range of 6 % acidity." From "The Florida Keys Cookbook"

Tips:

  • To make the most flavorful vinaigrette, use a high-quality balsamic vinegar. Look for one that is aged for at least 12 years.
  • If you don't have any shallots on hand, you can use a small onion instead. Just be sure to mince it very finely.
  • For a more robust flavor, add a teaspoon of Dijon mustard to the vinaigrette.
  • If you're using a delicate green, such as baby arugula or spinach, toss it with the vinaigrette just before serving. This will prevent the greens from wilting.
  • For a more hearty salad, add some grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu to the baby greens.
