Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
• 0.33 cup Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 clove Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Peel and finely mince the garlic clove. For an extra smooth dressing, you can also use a garlic press or microplane to grate the garlic.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 3

Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while continuously whisking. This will help emulsify the dressing and create a smooth, creamy texture.

Step 4

Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning if needed. Add a pinch more salt or pepper, or an extra drizzle of honey if you prefer a sweeter taste.

Step 5

Transfer the dressing to an airtight container or jar and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.

Step 6

Give the dressing a good shake or stir before using. Drizzle over fresh spinach or your favorite salad mix, toss, and serve!
