Description
A basic vinaigrette deserves a permanent spot in every cook's repertoire. Ready in minutes and fine to keep in the fridge for weeks, it can totally change a salad. And it's highly adaptable. Add garlic or tarragon in place of the mustard, or infuse it with other herbs. For a creamy dressing, replace the oil with buttermilk, crème fraîche or mayonnaise. Some chefs even use vegetable purées or nut milks in place of the oil.
Ingredients
(one per line)
2tablespoons wine vinegar 1/4teaspoon salt 1/4cup olive oil 1teaspoon mustard (optional) Black pepper
Directions
Pour vinegar into a shallow bowl. Whisk in salt. Gradually whisk in olive oil. Adding it slowly will help the dressing emulsify. Whisk in the mustard, if using. Add a few grinds of black pepper and taste. Add more of whatever you think it needs, a bit at a time. (Too tart? Add oil. Too bland? Add salt and vinegar.)
