This vinaigrette is delicious as is, though it can serve as a base as well. Add minced shallot or garlic, minced fresh herbs, lemon zest and juice, cracked black pepper. Use it with grated carrots or beets, fresh tomatoes, or any other vegetable mixture.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard 2 to 3 teaspoons red wine vinegar 3 tablespoons bland oil such as sunflower 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil Salt and pepper
Preparation
Whisk the mustard and the red wine together in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in the 3 tablespoons of oil until the mixture is thickened, then whisk in the olive oil. Taste for seasoning. To thin the vinaigrette, simply whisk in a teaspoon or two of water.
