White balsamic vinaigrette
Other than the occasional blue-cheese dressing (Clemson BlueCheese, of course), I stick to simple vinaigrettes. So if you want a good ratio for ingredients, I think this is a good start. This is what I've been mixing up lately with my new Trader Joe's favorite: white balsamic vinegar. I never measure when I make dressings (sometimes a disaster) but here are estimations!
ΒΌ C white balsamic vinegar
1/4 tsp kosher salt
fresh herbs*
1 to 2 tsp. honey
1/3 to 1/2 cup olive oil
Freshly ground pepper
optional variations:
1/2 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
*I usually grab a few basil leaves and a sprig of oregano. Dried herbs can certainly be substituted.
