BASIC VINAIGRETTE (PLUS VARIATIONS!)

Basic Vinaigrette (Plus Variations!) image

Here's my go-to vinaigrette recipe! It's so easy to make and tastes way better than store-bought dressings. You can change up the flavors by choosing the vinegar that suits your salad best. Recipe yields 3/4 cup dressing, enough for about 6 medium salads (assuming 2 tablespoons per salad).

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons vinegar of choice (balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar, white wine vinegar)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
2 medium cloves garlic, pressed or minced
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

In a liquid measuring cup or bowl, combine all of the ingredients. Stir well with a small whisk or a fork until the ingredients are completely mixed together.
Taste, and adjust as necessary. If the mixture is too acidic, thin it out with a bit more olive oil or balance the flavors with a little more maple syrup or honey. If the mixture is a little blah, add another pinch or two of salt. If it doesn't have enough zing, add vinegar by the teaspoon.
Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for future use. Homemade vinaigrette keeps well for 7 to 10 days. If your vinaigrette solidifies somewhat in the fridge, don't worry about it-real olive oil tends to do that. Simply let it rest at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes or microwave very briefly (about 20 seconds) to liquify the olive oil again. Whisk to blend and serve.

MY FAVORITE OIL AND VINEGAR DRESSING

My Favorite Oil and Vinegar Dressing image

Excellent on a salad topped with blue cheese, dried cranberries, mandarin oranges and pecans but good on any green salad. I have made it with Splenda and even though it isn't quite as good IMHO, it is still a nice dressing. (The servings amount is a guess)

Time 10m

Yield 2 cups, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

2/3 cup sugar (if you prefer a tarter dressing, cut back on the sugar some) or 2/3 cup Splenda sugar substitute (if you prefer a tarter dressing, cut back on the sugar some)
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1 cup extra virgin olive oil (no substitutes)
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

To prepare dressing, warm wine vinegar slightly.
Add sugar and stir to dissolve.
If you don't warm the vinegar, you will have trouble getting the sugar to dissolve.
Allow to cool.
Add onion, paprika and salt.
Stir well.
Add olive oil and blend.
I prefer to put it in a bottle and shake it.
Pour over salad and enjoy!
