    Balsamic Vinaigrette

    Jan 21, 2012 · by Katie Koteen · Modified: May 30, 2017

    Jump to Recipe·Leave a Review

    This is a great all purpose balsamic vinaigrette recipe for salads or grilled vegetables. I usually double or quadruple the recipe, keeping the extra in the refrigerator until needed. The basic recipe is enough dressing for about four cups of salad greens.

    Ingredients

    • 1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
    • ½ tsp. minced shallot
    • ½ tsp. Dijon mustard (optional)
    • ¼ tsp. table salt
    • Pinch ground black pepper

    Instructions

    1. Combine vinegar, shallot, mustard (if using), salt, and pepper in bowl with fork. Add oil, then whisk or mix with fork until smooth, about 30 seconds. The dressing will separate after 5 to 10 minutes, so use immediately or mix again before tossing with greens.
