Amazing Garlicy Balsamic Vinaigrette
"This is up there with best and tastiest vinaigrettes I've ever encountered."
- Ready In:
- 10mins
- Ingredients:
- 12
- Yields:
-
20 ounces
ingredients
- 1 sweet onion
- 8 garlic cloves
- 1⁄2 red bell pepper
- 3⁄4 cup fresh basil leaf
- 2 tablespoons fresh oregano leaves
- 1⁄2 tablespoon salt (or more to taste)
- 1⁄2 tablespoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Coleman's dry mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 3⁄4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
directions
- Put all ingredients into a food processor and process until smooth. This is a very forgiving recipe. You can substitute dried herbs instead of fresh but use more than you think you need (but the fresh stuff has the clear edge,) wet mustard instead of dry, lime for lemon, etc. If you're brave, go for extra garlic. It makes alot, maybe 20 ounces. We just put it into recycled salad dressing or similar plastic bottles and we don't buy mass market salad dressing anymore. It will keep at least for 4 weeks -- we've never gone longer. Also great to toss a little in with some cheese tortellini but go easy on it!

A very nice dressing that even when cut down made way more than we usually keep on hand. Really liked just dumping everything in the blender all at once and thought it was very nice on a green dinner salad. Thanks for the post. -
Made this for Spring PAC 2012 and this was a great choice. I did cut the recipe way down to about 2.5 ounces for DH and I. So easy and very tasty for a green salad. Thank you for posting.
