Ingredients for Fraicheur Vinaigrette

  • White Wine Vinegar
  • Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Dry Mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Instant Minced Garlic
  • Olive Oil

How to Make Fraicheur Vinaigrette

  1. In a small jar or airtight container with a lid, combine the white wine vinegar (or apple cider vinegar), granulated sugar (or honey), salt, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, and minced garlic.
  2. Secure the lid tightly and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to fully combine the ingredients.
  3. Add the extra virgin olive oil to the jar. Close the lid tightly again.
  4. Shake vigorously for another 20-30 seconds, or until the dressing is emulsified and creamy. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed (adding more salt, sugar, or vinegar to your preference).
  5. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
