MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE



Mustard Vinaigrette image

A generous spoonful of Dijon mustard makes this vinaigrette creamy and tart. Use the dressing with sturdy salad greens like romaine or with softer lettuces like Bibb lettuce or oak leaf. The dressing is too strong to work with baby salad greens or mesclun. It's also great with cooked vegetables like beets or broccoli and with grain salads.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality mustard. The type of mustard you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your vinaigrette. For a classic vinaigrette, use a Dijon mustard. For a more flavorful vinaigrette, try using a whole grain mustard or a stone ground mustard.
  • Use a flavorful oil. The type of oil you use will also affect the flavor of your vinaigrette. For a light and delicate vinaigrette, use a light oil such as olive oil or grapeseed oil. For a more robust vinaigrette, use a heavier oil such as avocado oil or walnut oil.
  • Use a balance of vinegar and oil. The ratio of vinegar to oil in your vinaigrette is important. A good starting point is to use equal parts vinegar and oil. You can then adjust the ratio to taste.
  • Add some herbs and spices. Adding herbs and spices to your vinaigrette is a great way to add flavor and complexity. Some popular herbs and spices to use include basil, chives, dill, garlic, oregano, parsley, rosemary, and thyme.
  • Let your vinaigrette rest for a while. Letting your vinaigrette rest for a while will allow the flavors to meld together. This will result in a more flavorful vinaigrette.

Conclusion:

Mustard vinaigrette is a versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads, vegetables, and proteins. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. By following these tips, you can make a perfect mustard vinaigrette that will enhance the flavor of your dishes.
