What is your fav vinaigrette recipe?

This is from memory, so forgive the weird measurements.

3 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar

2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice (and a little of the zest)

1 big Tbsp. Dijon

1 big spoonful of minced garlic

A good squeeze of honey (maybe 3/4 tsp.?)

1/3 - 1/2 cup olive oil

A pinch of kosher salt and fresh ground pepper

Shake it all up and store in the fridge. Let stand at room temp a bit before serving and shake well again.

Cowboy Vinaigrette:

1 1/2 cups apple cider vinegar

3 tbsp sugar

1/8 cup horseradish

3 cups plus 2 tbsp veggie oil

1/4 cup finely chopped red onion

1/8 cup worcestershire sauce

3/4 tbsp dijon mustard

Place everything but the oil in a food processor, and combine. Slowly add the oil until emulsified. Keep in an air tight container.

This is god as is or mix with ranch dressing for a creamy vinaigrette for salads or to dip fries in, or as a dressing for pasta salad.

I know you aren;t asking for a ranch recipe but since I like to mix the 2 here is my ranch recipe:

Ranch Dressing:

3/4 tsp dried chives

3/4 tsp dried parsley

1/4 tsp dill weed

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp onion powder

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1 heaping cup mayo

1/2 cup buttermilk

Mix the dry ingredients into the mayo. Add the buttermilk and keep in a container in the fridge

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

whisk in:

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

3/4 cup really great Olive oil

Season to taste with salt & pepper, maybe some tarragon or thyme

Goes great with a spring mix salad, or just Iceberg!
