Balsamic Vinaigrette

This balsamic vinaigrette is a flavorful dressing that adds bold flavor to salads, vegetables and even proteins such as chicken and beef. A kitchen staple that's so easy to make and tastes way better than the store bought version.

Instructions

  1. Place all of the ingredients in a small bowl.
  2. Whisk well until dressing is emulsified and slightly thickened.
  3. Pour the dressing into a jar or airtight container.
  4. Use immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

  • This is a very simple recipe, so use the highest quality extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar that you can find. I prefer to use an aged balsamic vinegar whenever possible. This type of balsamic costs a bit more, but has a more intense, well rounded flavor without as much acidity.
  • The recipe makes enough dressing for about 4 large salads.
