Laura’s Secret Weapon Vinaigrette

Jump to Comments

I’m guessing that there are plenty of people out there who have made a vinaigrette much like this several thousand times, so it’s not actually a secret.  (But I thought it made a punchy title, so there ya go.)  I made this up tonight to dress a salad I’ll post in a separate recipe.  The dressing was so good, I thought it deserved its own space–and I’ll definitely be making it again!

Laura’s Secret Weapon Vinaigrette

  • 1/4 c. olive oil
  • 3 TBSP balsamic vinegar
  • 2 TBSP red wine vinegar (or, if you have neither, substitute any kind of vinegar in similar quantity)
  • 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 TBSP prepared brown mustard
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp. rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp. coarse-ground black pepper

Whisk all of the above in a small bowl before pouring over the salad you are going to dress.  Or, use the vinaigrette as a marinade for meat! Or as a dipping sauce for a great bread.  Or as the sauce for a simple pasta dish. Yum!
