Instructions
- Add the mustard into a bowl, add the vinegar and whisk.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Gradually add the oil in a drizzle, whisking vigorously.
- Depending on taste, add 1 crushed garlic clove, 1 finely chopped shallot, 1 chopped scallion or fine herbs (chives, tarragon, chervil, parsley, etc.).
Notes
- Although very often used in a vinaigrette, mustard is not essential. The authentic vinaigrette recipe does not contain mustard. Red or white wine vinegar can be replaced with another acid such as cider vinegar, balsamic vinegar or raspberry vinegar for example. It is also possible to replace it with lemon juice. Vegetable oil can be mixed with olive oil or flavored oils such as walnut or hazelnut oil.
