GARLIC VINAIGRETTE

Long ago, before I could just throw a vinaigrette together, I started with this recipe. It's called The Best Vinaigrette Dressing in the Celebrations on The Bayou cookbook, put out by the Junior League of Monroe, Louisiana. The recipe calls for white wine vinegar but you can use either red or white wine or champagne vinegars. And, it's delicious with Feta crumbled over your green salad. 7/2013: Added a tweak of a little agave or honey to soften the taste.

Tips:

  • Use good quality olive oil: The quality of the olive oil you use will make a big difference in the taste of your vinaigrette. Look for a fruity, flavorful olive oil that is not too bitter or acidic.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs will give your vinaigrette a brighter, more vibrant flavor than dried herbs. If you can, use herbs that have been freshly picked from your garden or a local farmers market.
  • Add a little acidity: A little bit of acidity will help to balance out the flavors in your vinaigrette. You can use lemon juice, vinegar, or even dry white wine.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste your vinaigrette before you use it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may need to add more salt, pepper, or herbs to get the perfect flavor.
  • Use vinaigrette within a few days: Vinaigrette is best when used within a few days of making it. The flavors will start to fade after a while, so don't make a big batch unless you plan to use it all up quickly.

Conclusion:

Garlic herb vinaigrette is a versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads, vegetables, and meats. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and flavorful vinaigrette that will elevate your next meal.
