This is my favorite basic vinaigrette! I love the tang and brightness of the lemon and the subtle flavor of the Tarragon! They were made for each other! Feel free to add your favorite spice! This recipe makes 3/4 of a cup, so you may want to double it. Note:Be sure to prepare this ahead of time, the flavors need a few hours to meld. Please try to use fresh lemons, using the stuff in the lettle yellow plastic thing just won't give you the quality results. Ingredients:
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (from 1 to 2 lemons) |
1 teaspoon honey |
1 small shallot, minced |
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil |
1 dash paprika |
1 pinch dried tarragon, more if desired |
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper, if desired |
Directions:
1. Whisk together the lemon juice, honey, and shallot in a small bowl. Add dried spices, and pepper if using.
2. Slowly add the oil in a thin stream, whisking constantly until emulsified.
