Categories     Mustard     No-Cook     Quick & Easy     Salad Dressing     Vinegar     Walnut     Shallot

Yield Makes approximately 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 shallot, peeled and minced
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup aged sherry vinegar
3 tablespoons walnut or hazelnut oil*
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Toss the minced shallots with the salt in a bowl and let the shallots "weep" for a few minutes. This helps them flavor the vinaigrette more quickly. Whisk in the mustard and sherry vinegar. Slowly drizzle in the walnut oil and the olive oil. It's not important to keep this vinaigrette emulsified. If the oil and vinegar separate, just stir vigorously to recombine them before using. Season with the pepper and more salt if needed. This vinaigrette will keep several weeks in the fridge.
  • *Once oil has been opened, store it in the fridge to slow down the oxidation that leads to rancidity - especially a problem for nut oils.

SHERRY VINAIGRETTE

This simple vinaigrette recipe makes a great alternative to store-bought dressings. It's a Good Thing.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking

Yield Makes 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/4 cup sherry-wine vinegar
3/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 shallot, finely chopped
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, olive oil, mustard, and shallots until well combined; season with salt and pepper. Alternatively, place all ingredients in a small jar; cover and shake to combine. Refrigerate vinaigrette until ready to use, up to 2 weeks.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe shallots: Look for shallots that are firm and have no bruises or blemishes. The outer skin should be dry and papery.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you slice the shallots thinly and evenly. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't crowd the shallots: When you're sautéing the shallots, don't crowd them in the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Use a good quality sherry vinegar: The sherry vinegar is a key ingredient in this recipe, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a sherry vinegar that is aged for at least 3 years.
  • Let the vinaigrette rest: After you've made the vinaigrette, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before using. This will allow the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Shallot and sherry wine vinaigrette is a delicious and versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads. It's also great as a marinade for chicken, fish, or vegetables. If you're looking for a new and flavorful dressing to try, this shallot and sherry wine vinaigrette is a great option.
