Ingredients

• 100 grams fresh raspberries
• 120 ml extra virgin olive oil
• 60 ml red wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

Place the fresh raspberries in a medium-sized bowl. Using a fork or potato masher, gently mash the raspberries until they are mostly broken down and juicy.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard. Whisk together until well blended.

Step 3

Add the mashed raspberries to the oil and vinegar mixture. Stir gently to combine.

Step 4

Add the salt and ground black pepper to the vinaigrette. Adjust to taste if necessary.

Step 5

If the vinaigrette is too thick, add the water to thin it out, mixing well to reach desired consistency.

Step 6

Pass the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl or jar to remove the raspberry seeds. Discard any solids left in the sieve.

Step 7

Pour the vinaigrette into a jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake well before serving. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Step 8

Serve the raspberry vinaigrette over your favorite salad greens, such as mixed baby greens, spinach, or arugula.
