Servings: 10 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
- ¼ cup chopped shallots
- 2 cloves garlic
- ¼ cup red wine vinegar
- 4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- Freshly cracked black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Whisk all the ingredients for the vinaigrette together except the olive oil until smooth. Stream in the olive oil and whisk until emulsified and then use as needed. Keep for up to 8 days in the fridge.
Notes
If you want to prep this ahead in bulk, you can 3x the recipe and make it in your blender. It will emulsify perfectly and keep for up to 10 days in the fridge.
If you want to freeze this, pour the vinaigrette into an ice cube tray and pop into the freezer. Then remove a cube of vinaigrette the morning before you want to use it, let it thaw and come to room temperature, and use as needed.
