MUSTARD-SHALLOT VINAIGRETTE



Mustard-Shallot Vinaigrette image

Store-bought salad dressings are an automatic shortcut for many cooks. But with their sweeteners and stabilizers, they aren't worthy of a well-made salad, whether your tastes run to iceberg and romaine or mizuna and mesclun. And - revolutionary notion ahead - they aren't really more convenient than a basic vinaigrette like this one, made in big batches from real ingredients, which can also live happily and indefinitely in your refrigerator door.

Time 10m

Yield About 1 1/4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 shallot, minced
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 heaping teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil, more to taste

Steps:

  • In a container with a tight lid, preferably a glass jar, combine shallot, vinegar and mustard. Close tightly and shake well to mix. Add salt and pepper, and shake again.
  • Add olive oil 1/3 cup at a time, shaking very well after each addition, until smooth and emulsified (you may want to wrap a kitchen towel around the container, just in case). Taste and add more olive oil, 1/4 cup at a time, if dressing is too tart.
  • Use immediately or refrigerate up to 3 weeks. The chilled olive oil will form a lump, so remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before using to allow it to liquefy. Shake well before serving to re-emulsify.

GRILLED STEAK SALAD WITH VINAIGRETTE



Grilled Steak Salad With Vinaigrette image

I put this together for dinner tonight, and it was so good! It was very hearty and filling, with bread and cheese as an accompaniment. Amounts are just estimated guidelines. Use a good quality Dijon mustard, ideally a strong, but not too vinegary, mustard. Prep time is an estimated time for all the chopping etc listed in the ingredients. You can prepare the vegetables, steak, and vinaigrette in advance and refrigerate until ready to use--I'd say use the same day, though, or there will be some loss in quality.
