Garlic & Herb Vinaigrette Dressing Recipe
Description
This vinaigrette combines extra virgin olive oil with red wine vinegar as its acidic base. Sweetness comes from honey and sharpness from Dijon mustard, which also helps emulsify the dressing. Dried garlic powder and Mediterranean herbs such as basil, oregano, and parsley add herbal flavor, while salt and black pepper season it fully.
The ingredients are shaken together in a sealed jar until fully combined. Chilling the dressing causes it to thicken, and it benefits from warming to room temperature or briefly running the jar under warm water before using to loosen the texture.
This dressing can be stored refrigerated until ready to serve and shaken well before drizzling over greens or vegetables, enhancing simple salads with a balanced savory and slightly sweet profile.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/3 cup red wine vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon honey

Notes
