"A simple yet delicious vinaigrette. Perfect for salads, over vegetables; and, even as a marinade. If I am just dressing greens; I usually add the shallot. But, if my salad already has onion in it; I won't. And the honey; I only add that when I have a salad with some sweeter ingredients; such as - fruit, ham, or turkey."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Vinaigrette ... Add everything to a small food processor or blender; and, pulse until smooth and emulsified. Note: I usually start without the lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon mustard, and a few less olives. Pulse, then taste; and, adjust as needed. You can always add more. Personally, I like a very lemon/olive/mustard taste; but, you may not. So, personally I add the lemon zest, and all the olives. The mustard; it depends on the type of salad I am making. And, I always customize my dressings/vinaigrettes to fit.

Step 2

After the get the flavor you like; season with salt and pepper. Then, put in a mason jar, tupperware type of container, or cover a small cup with plastic wrap; and, refrigerate at least 1 hour if possible, before serving.

Step 3

As mentioned; if my salad doesn't have onion in it; I often add the shallot. For sweeter type of salad; I add a drizzle of honey.

Step 4

Serve and ENJOY!!! ... Your favorite greens, vegetables; or even seafood. It also makes a great marinade.
