Notes

  • Make-Ahead: For freshness, you can make this Pesto Vinaigrette up to 3 days ahead. You can serve this immediately, but more flavors will come out with time. In addition, let it sit at room temperature before serving it.
  • How to Store: Place in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 5 to 7 days. This will not freeze.
  • Make this recipe in a stand mixer with the whisk attachment for the ultimate emulsified dressing.
  • Emulsify is just a fancy culinary term to combine two things that generally wouldn’t go together, like oil and vinegar.
