Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 6 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 1 clove Fresh garlic, minced
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Water (optional, for thinning)
Directions
Step 1
In a small mixing bowl, combine the balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, honey (or maple syrup), minced garlic, and black pepper.
Step 2
Whisk ingredients together until thoroughly combined.
Step 3
Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while continuously whisking to create a smooth and emulsified dressing.
Step 4
If the vinaigrette appears too thick, whisk in 1 teaspoon of water to thin it to your desired consistency.
Step 5
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. You can add a pinch of salt, but the soy sauce may already provide sufficient saltiness.
Step 6
Transfer the vinaigrette to a glass jar or container with a lid for storage.
Step 7
Serve immediately over salads, roasted vegetables, or use as a marinade.
