Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the blush wine vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard. Use a whisk to blend these ingredients until the honey is fully dissolved.

Season the vinaigrette with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir again to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed throughout the dressing.

Taste the vinaigrette and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper to suit your preference.

Step 6

Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar or bottle for storage. Shake well before each use.
