To prepare this homemade vinagrette, there are 3 tips to follow:
Tip 1:
The first trick is to use white balsamic vinegar.
This vinegar, made from white grapes, has the advantage of being soft and soft.
And I assure you at once: this vinegar is not too expensive. I recommend this 100% organic white balsamic vinegar.
Note: Most vinaigrette recipes recommend 2 volumes of oil per 1 volume of vinegar.
Personally, I prefer my vinaigrette with a more pronounced taste of vinegar: so I put the oil and the vinegar in equal parts.
But if you prefer less vinegar, adjust the recipe to have a less pronounced taste.
Tip 2:
The second trick to make a delicious vinaigrette is to use fine Dijon mustard.
Mustard is a binder between oil and vinegar (they do not mix well if you do not use a binder).
I always use classic Dijon mustard in my vinaigrette, unless I find a mustard with herbs or spices.
For example, mustard in tarragon is an excellent variation for this vinaigrette recipe.
Besides, do not hesitate to add herbs and spices of your choice to enhance the taste of the vinaigrette.
