Notes
- Apple cider vinegar: For the best flavor, look for a raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar such as Bragg brand (that's the one I always buy).
- Granulated sugar: Use less or omit entirely if desired.
- Dijon mustard: This is the emulsifying agent that binds the dressing together. Maille is a French brand of mustard and my favorite.
- Yield: This salad dressing recipe makes about 1 cup of dressing (16 tablespoons), enough for 8 servings, 2 tablespoons each.
- Storage: Store extra dressing covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Make ahead: The dressing can be mixed up to 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
