How to Make Burnt Honey And Orange Vinaigrette

  1. In a 2-cup saucepan or small nonstick skillet, pour 1/2 cup of honey.
  2. Cook over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until the honey foams. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking for 4-5 minutes, or until the honey turns a light amber color and begins to caramelize. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  3. Carefully remove the pan from the heat and immediately pour in 1/4 cup of freshly squeezed orange juice. (Be cautious as the honey will be hot).
  4. Return the pan to the burner over low heat and stir gently until the honey is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  5. Stir in 1 tablespoon of finely grated orange zest.
  6. Pour the mixture into a heatproof bowl and let it cool completely.
  7. Once cooled, whisk in 2 tablespoons of your favorite vinegar (e.g., red wine vinegar, apple cider vinegar), 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper, 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, and 2 tablespoons of avocado oil until the vinaigrette is emulsified and slightly thickened.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving. The vinaigrette will thicken further as it chills.
