SO, here's a basic Vinaigrette that we learned in class our second week. It's super easy and tastes great!
The basic formula for any vinaigrette is 3-1, 3 oil to 1 vinegar. For example for me and my wife I use 2 tablespoons vinegar to 6 table spoons of oil. Adjust the recipe according to your needs. Make sense?? Hope it does cause i'm going to move on : ) I'm going to do the recipe that I like and that is really basic but if you know the formula you can tweak the recipe for any kind of vinaigrette you want.
Ingredients
2 Tbs. Red Wine Vinegar
6 Tbs. Light Olive Oil
1 tsp. Dijon Mustard
1/2 Tsp. Fresh Garlic
Sugar
Salt
Pepper
Method
Get a small bowl and whisk, add vinegar to bowl and begin whisking. While whisking continuously slowly add oil a little at a time, only adding more after the previous addition has been incorporated until all oil is mixed in. Continue whisking and add Dijon mustard, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. You may be wondering why sugar? the sugar will bring down the acidity and make the flavor come out even more. add a pinch at a time tasting after each addition until desired acidity tang is aquired everyone's tastes are different so explore!
That's it! if anyone try's it let me know how it went in the comment section and if I need to change something in the recipe please feel free to comment. Thanks!
