Ingredients
- 1 cup Fresh blackberries
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 quarter cup Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 Garlic clove
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Water
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the fresh blackberries thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine the blackberries and water. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries start to break down and release their juices.
Step 3
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the mixture to cool for 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Once cooled, strain the blackberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a mixing bowl, pressing with the back of a spoon to extract as much juice as possible. Discard the solids.
Step 5
To the strained blackberry juice, add balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Step 6
Whisk the ingredients together until the dressing is fully emulsified and smooth.
Step 7
Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed, adding more salt, pepper, or honey to suit your preference.
Step 8
Pour the dressing into a clean jar or bottle and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Shake well before using.
