Basil vinaigrette is a vibrant, herbaceous dressing commonly used in Mediterranean cuisine. It's made with fresh basil leaves, olive oil, vinegar (often balsamic or white wine), garlic, a touch of honey or Dijon mustard for balance, and salt and pepper to taste. This versatile condiment pairs beautifully with salads, roasted vegetables, grilled proteins, or even as a marinade. Thanks to the base of olive oil, basil vinaigrette offers heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while fresh basil provides antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits. Garlic adds more immune-boosting properties, and vinegar supports digestion. However, some variations may include added sugars, so mindful preparation or checking labels can ensure a healthier option. Its fresh flavor and nutrient-packed ingredients make basil vinaigrette both a delicious and health-conscious addition to meals.
