Ingredients
Instructions
Prepare the Base
In a small bowl, whisk together the minced black garlic, chopped shallot, Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, and honey until well combined. For a smoother texture, you can also use a blender or food processor.
Emulsify
Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while continuously whisking to create a thick, emulsified dressing.
Season
Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking.
Serve or Store
Use the vinaigrette immediately over your favorite salad, or store it in a lidded glass jar in the refrigerator. It will keep for several days. If the oil solidifies, simply let the dressing come to room temperature and shake well before using.
