Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
• 6 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 1.5 tablespoons Honey
• 1 clove Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Peel the garlic clove and finely mince it or use a garlic press to achieve a smooth texture.

Step 2

In a small mixing bowl or a glass jar with a lid, combine the balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Whisk the ingredients together until well combined or, if using a jar, seal tightly with the lid and shake vigorously until the mixture is smooth and emulsified.

Step 4

Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuously whisking if using a bowl. This will help the vinaigrette emulsify and blend together evenly. If using a jar, simply add the olive oil and shake again until well combined.

Step 5

Taste the vinaigrette and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or honey as needed.

Step 6

Use immediately over salads, roasted vegetables, or as a marinade, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before each use.
