Romaine vinaigrette is a zesty, oil-based dressing often paired with crisp romaine lettuce in salads. Typically rooted in French-inspired cuisine, it combines ingredients such as olive oil, vinegar (or lemon juice), Dijon mustard, garlic, and herbs for a tangy yet balanced flavor. Some variations may include honey or sugar for a touch of sweetness. Its health aspects largely depend on the quality of the oil and proportion of ingredients; using extra-virgin olive oil offers heart-healthy fats and antioxidants. The addition of fresh herbs enhances the nutrient profile with vitamins and minerals. However, it can be calorie-dense if consumed in large amounts due to the oil content, so portion control is recommended for those watching their caloric intake. Free of artificial preservatives, this homemade dressing is a wholesome option to elevate fresh salads.
