Balsamic Vinegar Dressing image

A classic dressing that everyone should know! The "formula" is 1 part vinegar to 3 parts oil. Some people who like sharper dressing will use less oil. The better the quality of the vinegar and oil, the better the dressing!

Time 2m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar ((ordinary, not caramelised or syrupy))
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil ((or less if you like sharper dressing))
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil ((or less if you like sharper dressing))
Salt and pepper to taste
Honey or sugar (, to taste)

Balsamic Vinaigrette and Olive Oil Dressing: The Key to a Flavorful Dish

Balsamic vinaigrette and extra virgin oil is a simple yet versatile combination that can transform simple ingredients into an exquisite dish. The tangy and sweet flavors of balsamic vinegar provide a perfect contrast to the peppery and nutty taste of extra virgin oil. This combination can be used as a marinade, a drizzle, or a dipping agent, which enhances the taste of salads, meats, and grilled items. Here are some tips to ensure the perfect balance of flavors and a smooth texture in your homemade balsamic vinaigrette and fresh herbs:

  • Select high-quality ingredients: Use the best balsamic vinegar and fresh herbs that you can afford. The quality of the components will directly impact the taste of the finished product.
  • Use the right ratio: Generally, a good starting point is 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar to 3-4 tablespoons extra virgin oil. However, you can adjust the ratio to suit your taste.
  • Emulsify the vinaigrette: To create a smooth and creamy texture, whisk the balsamic vinegar and extra virgin oil together vigorously until they are well combined and emulsified. You can also use a blender.
  • Add fresh herbs: Just before serving, sprinkle some fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley, or oregano, on top of the dish. This will add a pop of color and enhance the overall taste and aroma of the dish.
  • Experiment with different flavors: Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors.
