Champagne vinaigrette

Contributed by Preston Maring, MD

Baby gem lettuces ask for a classy vinaigrette — very lightly dressed. So easy and so good.

There are other versions of this dressing with 2 to 3 times the amount of oil. I liked this one and so did my family.

Servings: about 2/3 cup — 8 to 10 servings

Ingredients

1 medium shallot, peeled and quartered
1/4 cup champagne vinegar
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Pulse in blender until smooth.
Use sparingly.
