Mustard Vinaigrette Recipe

To make this vinaigrette we will only need a drizzle of oil, vinegar, salt and, of course, mustard, as it will be the base of our vinaigrette. And the one responsible for the powerful and authentic flavor of this dressing.

We can use the mustard we want, always bearing in mind that it will modify the flavor of our vinaigrette. We have chosen Dijon mustard, but you can use any other.

We will need a small airtight jar, which will be where we mix all the ingredients. Once we add all the ingredients of our vinaigrette, we close the jar tightly and shake vigorously. Until all the ingredients have been integrated with each other. You will see that it becomes a more opaque and uniform color, because we have to shake very well until the oil has mixed with both the vinegar and the mustard. This is how simple it is to prepare this mustard vinaigrette. Even so, let’s take a look at the step by step.
