Time 8m

Yield 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil, use extra virgin if possible
2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped or 2 teaspoons dried basil
1 tablespoon parsley, finely chopped
1 tablespoon nonfat dry milk powder
2 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • In a small bowl whisk together the mustard, vinegar, oil, basil and parsley.
  • In a separate bowl mix the powdered milk and water; it will not be the consistency of milk, instead creamier and thicker like half-n-half.
  • Combine milk with the dressing and whisk until fully incorporated.
  • This will keep in the fridge for 2 or 3 days; if you are using dried herbs its tastes better if you let the dressing sit in the ice box an hour or so before serving.
