Creating An Organic Vinaigrette: A Flavourful & Wholesome Dressing
Making your organic vinaigrette is simple and allows you to savour the natural, vibrant flavours of fresh, high quality ingredients. Here’s a basic recipe to get you started:
Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons of Verdera
- 1 tablespoon organic balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon organic Dijon mustard
- 1 small organic garlic clove, minced (optional, for added flavour)
- 1/2 teaspoon organic honey or maple syrup (for a touch of sweetness)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Whisk the Base: In a small bowl or glass jar, combine the verdera, organic balsamic vinegar, and organic Dijon mustard. This mixture forms the base of your vinaigrette.
- Add Sweetness: For a hint of sweetness, add organic honey or maple syrup to the mixture. Adjust the amount to suit your taste. This balances the acidity and adds depth to the dressing.
- Season and Flavour: If desired, add a minced organic garlic clove for a burst of flavour. Season with a pinch of salt and a dash of freshly ground black pepper to enhance the overall taste.
- Emulsify: Whisk the ingredients together vigorously or seal the jar and shake it well. This emulsifies the dressing, creating a harmonious blend of flavours.
- Taste and Adjust: Taste the vinaigrette and adjust the seasoning to your preference. You can add more vinegar for acidity, honey for sweetness, or olive oil for a milder taste.
- Store and Serve: Store your organic vinaigrette in an airtight container or jar in the refrigerator. Before using, give it a good shake or stir. Drizzle it over fresh organic salads, roasted vegetables, or grilled meats for a burst of wholesome, homemade flavour.
Crafting your organic vinaigrette allows you to enjoy the goodness of organic ingredients and tailor the dressing to your taste. Experiment with different vinegars, herbs, or citrus zest to create your signature organic dressings. Contact us today at Victus Emporium to find out more.
