OLIVE OIL DIPPING SAUCE



Olive Oil Dipping Sauce image

I love to have this on hand as a base for salad dressings, garlic bread, pizza topping, or just garlic flavored olive oil. For salad dressing whisk your favorite vinegar (balsalmic, red wine vinegar...) with a little honey, then add about the same amount of this dipping sauce and you have a wonderful dressing. For garlic bread brush this on slices of bread, broil for 2 - 3 minutes, flip the bread over and brush that side, broil it for an additional 2 minutes, then add shredded parmesan cheese. Yummy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the dipping sauce will be. Use extra-virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and fresh herbs for the best flavor.
  • Adjust the proportions to taste: The basic ratio for an oil and vinegar dipping sauce is 3 parts oil to 1 part vinegar. However, you can adjust this ratio to suit your own taste. If you like a more tart sauce, add more vinegar. If you prefer a milder sauce, add more oil.
  • Experiment with different herbs and spices: There are many different herbs and spices that you can add to an oil and vinegar dipping sauce to create different flavors. Some popular additions include basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary, garlic, and pepper.
  • Let the sauce marinate: Allowing the sauce to marinate for a few hours or overnight will help the flavors to meld together and develop. This will result in a more flavorful sauce.
  • Serve the sauce at room temperature: Oil and vinegar dipping sauces are best served at room temperature. This allows the flavors to shine through and prevents the oil from solidifying.

Conclusion:

An oil and vinegar dipping sauce is a simple but delicious way to add flavor to your favorite foods. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sauce that is perfect for dipping bread, vegetables, meat, or seafood. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy way to add some flavor to your meal, try making an oil and vinegar dipping sauce. You won't be disappointed!
