Mustard vinaigrette is a classic and versatile dressing that can be used on salads, vegetables, and even meat. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. The key to a perfect mustard vinaigrette is to use a good quality mustard and a flavorful oil. Dijon mustard is a popular choice for its sharp flavor, but you can also use a milder mustard such as yellow or honey mustard. For the oil, you can use olive oil, grapeseed oil, or a combination of the two. Once you have chosen your mustard and oil, you can add other ingredients to taste, such as honey, lemon juice, or herbs.

Here are our top 13 tried and tested recipes!

MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE



Mustard Vinaigrette image

A generous spoonful of Dijon mustard makes this vinaigrette creamy and tart. Use the dressing with sturdy salad greens like romaine or with softer lettuces like Bibb lettuce or oak leaf. The dressing is too strong to work with baby salad greens or mesclun. It's also great with cooked vegetables like beets or broccoli and with grain salads.
