How to Make Shallot Vinaigrette

  1. Finely mince 2 shallots.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the minced shallots, 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons of red wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon of honey, and a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  3. Slowly whisk in 1/2 cup of extra virgin olive oil until the vinaigrette emulsifies and thickens slightly.
  4. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more honey for sweetness, vinegar for tang, or salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Toss your favorite greens and vegetables with the vinaigrette just before serving to prevent wilting.
