**Red Wine Vinaigrette: A Versatile Dressing for Salads and More**
Red wine vinaigrette is a classic dressing that is both simple to make and incredibly versatile. It is made with just a few basic ingredients: red wine, olive oil, Dijon mustard, shallots, and salt and pepper. The red wine adds a rich, fruity flavor to the dressing, while the olive oil provides a smooth and creamy texture. The Dijon mustard adds a bit of tang and spice, and the shallots add a subtle sweetness. Salt and pepper are used to taste. This dressing can be used on a variety of salads, including green salads, Caesar salads, and even fruit salads. It can also be used as a marinade for chicken, fish, or steak. In this article, we'll provide you with three different recipes for red wine vinaigrette: a classic red wine vinaigrette, a honey- Dijon red wine vinaigrette, and a balsamic red wine vinaigrette. Each recipe has its own unique flavor profile, so you're sure to find one that you love.
RED WINE VINAIGRETTE
This red wine vinaigrette recipe goes nicely on salad greens, pasta salad or bean salad. Red wine vinegar is not as tart as other vinegars, so you can use a bit more compared to other vinaigrettes. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Steps:
- 1. Prepare an outdoor grill for medium- high cooking over direct heat.
- 2. Meanwhile, make the orzo salad: Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the orzo and cook, stirring often, for about 8 minutes, or until just tender. Drain the orzo in a sieve and set aside.
- 3. In a medium bowl, whisk the vinegar, shallots, and garlic together. Gradually whisk in the olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- 4. In a large bowl, toss the warm orzo, spinach, tomatoes, pine nuts, and basil with the vinaigrette. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside at room temperature.
- 5. To cook the salmon: Coat the salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Oil the cooking grate. Place the salmon on the grill with the top right corner of each fillet facing the 2-o'clock position and cook for 4 minutes, without moving the salmon. (This will help give the salmon a good sear of nice grill marks and help it release from the grate.) Using a thin metal spatula, starting at the corner of each fillet nearest you, flip the fillets over. Grill for about 2 minutes, or until the fish is opaque with a slightly rosy center when flaked in the thickest part with the tip of a small knife. Remove from the grill.
- 6. Mound the salad in the center of a large serving platter or four dinner plates. Sprinkle with the feta cheese. Top with the salmon, sprinkle with the chives, and serve.

WARM CHICKPEA SALAD WITH SHALLOTS AND RED WINE VINAIGRETTE
If you agree with Lynne Rossetto Kasper's belief that "the chickpea should be canonized into the food lover's hall of fame" then you'll love this delicious, flavoursome and very healthy warm chickpea salad from award-winning vegetarian chef Peter Berley's book "Fresh Food Fast: Delicious, Seasonal Vegetarian Meals in Under an Hour". I subscribed to Lynne Rossetto Kasper's "The Splendid Table" newsletters some time ago, and this is one of many fantastic recipes she has included in her newsletter. The recipes and her tips - which I have included in this posting - are great. I have posted this recipe here exactly as I received it. Because "The Splendid Table" recipes and Lynne's tips are always SO excellent, I shall post some more of them. I love this recipe, Lynne clearly loves this recipe; I hope that other chickpea lovers will too!

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the shallots, vinegar, garlic, and salt.
- Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the shallots and garlic to mellow.
- In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring 2 quarts of water to a boil.
- Add the chickpeas and blanch for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Drain.
- Add the carrot, parsley, and oil to the shallot mixture.
- Toss in the chickpeas and season with salt and pepper.
- Serve immediately with a loaf of good crusty bread, sweet butter and a leafy tossed salad.
- LYNNE'S TIPS:.
- Make extra and toss along with leftover tofu, seitan, shrimp, or cooked chicken breast into mixed greens for an entrée salad the next day.
- Substitute cannelini beans for the chickpeas and toss in some chopped good-quality salami.
- Simmering canned beans in lightly salted water for several minutes freshens them up. The warmed beans also absorb better the flavors of the vinaigrette.
- THOUGHTS FROM LYNNE:.
- On Canned Beans: Canned beans are the answer to little time and money. They taste every bit as good as those cooked from scratch, and they're packed with nutrition, including fiber, protein, complex carbohydrates and B vitamins. Add them to soups, toss them into green salads, or dress them with flavorful oils, vinegar and herbs.
- On Chickpeas: For my money, the chickpea should be canonized into the food lover's hall of fame. It is meaty, sweet and friendly with just about every seasoning and ingredient. Of course Peter Berley has known this for years.
