Tangy and Sweet Balsamic Vinaigrette (Traditional White Balsamic, Champagne Vinegar & EVOO)

For a vinaigrette that balances the tang with the sweet, use a little thick and sweet white balsamic vinegar along with an acidic white wine vinegar.

Balsamic Vinaigrette Veggie Salad Dressing

Blend together:

  • 1/4 cup white balsamic vinegar,

  • 1/4 cup champagne vinegar,

  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil,

  • 1 tablespoon each of dijon mustard, chopped red onion or shallot, chopped garlic, chopped fresh herbs (I used basil and thyme and parsley),

  • A pinch of kosher salt, and

  • a few grinds of black pepper.

Place in a glass jar with a screw on cap (mason jars are great). Shake well each time before using.

For a unique salad, toss dressing with blanched and cooled broccoli and cauliflower florets and northern white beans.
