Time 2m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup good-quality balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon wholegrain mustard
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients in a container with a tight-fitting lid (a mason jar works great).
  • Shake vigorously for 30 seconds until emulsified. You can also emulsify your vinaigrette in a blender or food processor (work on low, increasing the speed as you stream in the oil last). I only use a blender when working in extra large quantities. Up to about a cup, shaking it like crazy in a mason jar works great (and there's way less clean up.)
  • Alternatively, you can whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl. To use this method, whisk all ingredients except the olive oil in a small bowl, then stream in the olive oil while you continue to whisk until the dressing has emulsified.

Oregano Balsamic Vinaigrette image

Light and flavorful, this vinaigrette in another favorite of ours. We visited the CIA in Greystone a few years back and they used it to dress greens and served them in a parmesan bowl like the one in recipe #100637. What a wonderful combination!

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices bring out the best flavors in a vinaigrette. If you can, use herbs and spices that you have grown yourself or that you have purchased from a farmers market.
  • Choose a good quality balsamic vinegar: The balsamic vinegar is one of the main ingredients in this vinaigrette, so it is important to choose a good quality one. Look for a balsamic vinegar that is aged for at least 12 years.
  • Balance the flavors: The key to a good vinaigrette is to balance the flavors. You want the vinaigrette to be flavorful, but not too acidic or too oily. Start with a small amount of each ingredient and then adjust the amounts to taste.
  • Let the vinaigrette sit for a while before using: This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop. If you are making the vinaigrette ahead of time, store it in a jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • Use the vinaigrette on salads, roasted vegetables, or grilled meats: This vinaigrette is a great all-purpose dressing that can be used on a variety of dishes.
