It has a perfect balance of tangy, sweet, and herb flavors and it will only take a few minutes to make. Balsamic vinaigrette is one of the most classic salad dressing recipes. It is so popular, that every restaurant will have it on their menu and every grocery store has it in stock. But you don’t ever need to go to the store or a restaurant to get you hands on some delicious balsamic dressing.
You can make it yourself, right at home, and it will be the best tasting dressing. It just does not compare to anything you can get at the store. Plus, you choose the quality of every single ingredients that goes into your dressing. There is a good chance that you already have all the ingredients you need in your pantry and refrigerator. So grab everything you need, and shake it all up!
You want this to be light tasting so the flavor doesn’t overwhelm the other ingredients. So taste the oil before mixing it into the dressing to make sure there is no bitterness. I like to use an aged variety because it has a deeper, richer flavor, but regular will work too. Either way, be sure to use a good quality vinegar since the flavor will come through a lot. The darker color means more molasses, which will help balances the tartness of the vinegar and give you a deeper flavor. Dijon has an earthier flavor than regular yellow mustard, and it also helps the dressing emulsify and stay together. Citrus is a great addition to the vinegar, oil, and sugar.
