EASY TOMATO BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE

Easy Tomato Balsamic Vinaigrette image

I can't take credit for this recipe. A friend of mine who is a chef gave me this and I love it. Serve over grilled vegetables, fish and of course your favorite salad greens. One note, using a tube of the "double-concentrated" tomato paste really does make a big difference, as well as using an aged Balsamic. But I have made it with every day Balsamic and "standard" tomato paste and it still is pretty tasty. I think the rice vinegar is very important to use, and shouldn't be substituted in this recipe.

If you don't have shallots, you can use a small onion instead. Just be sure to mince it finely.
You can use any type of vinegar you like in this vinaigrette, but balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar, or white wine vinegar are all good choices.
If you want a thicker vinaigrette, you can add a teaspoon of Dijon mustard.
This vinaigrette will keep in the refrigerator for up to a week. Be sure to shake it well before using.
