To prepare this homemade dressing, there are 3 tips to follow:

Tip 1:

The first tip is to use white balsamic vinegar.

This vinegar, made from white grapes, has the advantage of being soft and mellow.

And I can reassure you right away: this vinegar is not too expensive. I recommend this 100% organic white balsamic vinegar.

Note: Most salad dressing recipes call for 2 parts oil to 1 part vinegar.

Personally, I prefer my dressing with a stronger vinegar taste: so I put the oil and vinegar in equal parts.

But if you prefer less vinegar, adjust the recipe so that it tastes less strong.

Tip 2:

The 2nd tip to make a delicious vinaigrette is to use fine Dijon mustard.

Mustard is a binder between oil and vinegar (they don’t mix well if you don’t use a binder).

I always use classic Dijon mustard in my dressing unless I find an herb or spice mustard.

For example, tarragon mustard is a great variation for this dressing recipe.

In fact, don’t hesitate to add herbs and spices of your choice to enhance the taste of the dressing.
