Instructions

  1. Here's how to make a basic olive oil dressing using the guidelines for a classic French vinaigrette. Whisk together vinegar and any additional seasonings. Slowly add olive oil and whisk in. Or, shake all ingredients together in a small jar with a tight lid. For safety and freshness, serve homemade dressings the same day you make them.

Recipe notes

A classic French vinaigrette is typically 3 to 4 parts oil (usually extra virgin olive oil) and 1 part acid (frequently red wine vinegar).
Seasonings include salt, pepper (freshly ground) and often Dijon mustard and/or garlic.
