How To Make A Basic Vinaigrette

Every home cook should know how to make a basic vinaigrette dressing. It's about as easy as easy can be and tastes way better than any store bought dressing (and there are no mystery ingredients!).

It also works well as chicken marinade when you're in a pinch.

I like my vinaigrette bright and tangy, and this recipe is just that. Enjoy!

I made it now and it is delicious! Here's how I made it:
I grated 1 clove of garlic, added olive oil, added balsamic vinegar, about a teaspoon and a half of spicy brown mustard, 1 teaspoon of honey, a good pinch of salt, and pepper. It is really delicious!

Dani, this post looks like it was done way back. I was in a hurry and the vinaigrette was perfect! I'm glad to have found your YT channel though. It seems that you keep things basic and simple but with some panache so to speak. I'll be popping by more regularly now. Excellent.

Great tip about the ratio of oil to vinegar! I’m using tarragon vinegar I bought for a twist on classic red wine vinegar

Quick, easy, short and to the point. Love it.

Also as a nice bonus it's hosted by Starlight from Amazon Prime's "The Boys" television series. Sweet.

You can also lighten your vinaigrette dressing by using one part spring water to one part oil and one part vinegar, shaking vigorously before use. I like to add a teaspoon of vegetable glycerin for its mild sweetness and a tablespoon of regular chili sauce for flavor.

Very good ratios, very good dressing. 👍

Thank you so much for making this quick and to the point video, I made this and it was great. Also earmarked this incase I forget. Haha ❤

Instead of whisking, I often just take an empty jar and shake the heck out of it for a minute. Saves a lot of time and the oil/vinegar doesn't split as easily.
