SIMPLE BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE

Simple Balsamic Vinaigrette image

An easy and delicious vinaigrette inspired by Emeril Lagasse. I switched it up to make it to our liking. I sometimes add OR eliminate the brown sugar and/or Dijon (depending on what I am using it for at that time). Taste the vinaigrette BEFORE adding any optional ingredients. Some people may choose not to use either, which is just fine. It all depends on your taste. Feel free to switch it up a bit and leave a note saying what you've changed. I hope you enjoy this versatile recipe.

Ingredients

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 -2 teaspoon brown sugar (optional, to taste)
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional, to taste)
1 -2 garlic clove (minced, to taste)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4-1/2 cup olive oil (more or less to preference)

Steps:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the vinegar with salt, pepper, garlic, Dijon and/or sugar (if using) until all is dissolved. Taste BEFORE using either one or both of the optional ingredients.
Very slowly start to drizzle in the olive oil while continuing to vigorously whisk.
Use immediately on your favourite salad of mixed greens and enjoy.
