• 3/4 cup olive oil
• 1 T Dijon mustard
• 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
• salt and pepper

Preparation

** A vinaigrette can be as simple or fancy as you would like. Add chopped shallots,fresh herbs or anything else that will compliment the contents of your salad.
** A vinaigrette made without egg yolk is not as stable and will separate soon after making it. Simply shake the container or whisk to emulsify immediately before service.
