BASIC VINAIGRETTE DRESSING WITH 8 VARIATIONS
Bottled salad dressing can be convenient but its expensive and often full of salt, sugar, and chemical additives. Making your own is simple and allows you to customize the seasonings to suit whatever meal you are preparing. The amounts given make about 1/4 cup and can be expanded infinitely for larger salads. It can be made several days ahead and kept in the fridge. Sorry about the slightly odd way of putting the ingredients for the creamy dressing variations. The recipe editor is picky about what it will accept.

Steps:
- Shake all ingredients for your chosen variation together in a tightly-lidded container OR whisk together in a small bowl.
- Let stand 10 minutes to rehydrate dried herbs and blend flavors.
- Shake again then dress salad as desired.
- Note -- I recommend the lemon dressing on spinach.
- Note -- I recommend the Bacon Dressing, Mustard Dressing, and Balsamic Vinaigrette on strong greens such as escarole, curly endive, and dandelion greens.
- Note -- The sweeter version of the mustard dressing is great for a vinegar coleslaw if you discover that you have accidentally gotten one of those occasional cabbages that are a touch on the bitter side.
- Note -- feel free to play with other seasonings, more complex blends, flavored oils, and flavored vinegars. Once you've learned the technique you can customize your salad dressing to suit just about any meal.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the shallots, vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt; let the mixture stand 10 minutes. Whisk in the mustard, then add the oil in a very slow, thin, steady stream, whisking constantly until the dressing is emulsified. Season with fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. DO AHEAD: The vinaigrette can be prepared ahead and refrigerated, in an airtight container, up to 1 week.
Tips:
- Use a good quality Dijon mustard. A good Dijon mustard will have a sharp, tangy flavor that will add depth to your vinaigrette.
- Make sure the olive oil is extra virgin. Extra virgin olive oil is the highest quality olive oil and it will give your vinaigrette the best flavor.
- Use fresh garlic and shallots. Fresh garlic and shallots will add a lot of flavor to your vinaigrette. If you don't have fresh garlic or shallots, you can use dried garlic powder or onion powder, but the flavor will be less intense.
- Let the vinaigrette sit for a while before using it. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop. You can make the vinaigrette up to a week in advance and store it in the refrigerator.
- Taste the vinaigrette before using it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or Dijon mustard, depending on your taste.
Conclusion:
Creamy Dijon vinaigrette is a versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads, vegetables, and meats. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its creamy texture and tangy flavor, creamy Dijon vinaigrette is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
