This creamy vinaigrette is the perfect accompaniment to any power salad. Also add it to steak, chicken, or pork as a guilt-free condiment. For best food-safety practices, refrigerate vinaigrette (for up to 5 days) after 1 to 2 hours at room temperature.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • cup Champagne vinegar

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

  • ½ shallot, chopped

  • ½ tablespoon Dijon mustard

  • 1 clove garlic

  • 2 teaspoons salt

  • 1 pinch ground black pepper to taste

  • 1 large egg yolk

  • cup extra-virgin olive oil, or more to taste

Directions

  1. Combine vinegar, parsley, shallot, mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper in a blender. Add egg yolk. Blend together for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Keep the blender running as you add olive oil in a long, steady stream. Continue to blend until fully emulsified. Serve immediately.

Cook's Notes:

You can use any white wine vinegar you like.

More olive oil will make for thicker, less tangy dressing.

Editor's Note:
