Equipment

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk or fork
  • Storage container

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar adds a tangy sweetness
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon Mustard for depth and a little kick
  • 1/2 teaspoon Crushed Garlic for aromatic flavor
  • 11 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil the base of your dressing
  • Salt to taste; enhances all the flavors

Instructions
 

  • Gather all your ingredients and gear. Make sure everything is measured out and ready to go.
  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon crushed garlic to form the flavorful base.
  • Whisk the vinegar, mustard, and garlic together until well combined to emulsify the dressing and meld flavors.
  • Gradually drizzle in 11 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil while whisking continuously to create a creamy texture and balance acidity.
  • Add salt to taste, starting with a small pinch and adjusting as needed to enhance flavor.
  • Pour the dressing into a storage container, seal tightly, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Shake or stir before using.

Notes

  • Experiment with fresh herbs like basil, parsley, or oregano to personalize your dressing.
  • Substitute balsamic vinegar with apple cider or red wine vinegar for different flavor profiles.
  • Store in the refrigerator for up to a week; shake well before each use as separation is natural.
