Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
• 6 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 clove Garlic
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Peel and finely mince the garlic clove until it is almost paste-like. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is well combined.

Step 3

Slowly drizzle in the extra-virgin olive oil while whisking continuously to emulsify the vinaigrette. The mixture should thicken slightly as you whisk.

Step 4

Taste the vinaigrette and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more salt, pepper, or honey based on your preference.

Step 5

Transfer the vinaigrette to a clean jar with a lid or an airtight container. Shake well before each use as the mixture may separate over time.

Step 6

Serve immediately over your favorite salad, or use as a marinade for chicken, fish, or roasted vegetables.
