Basic Vinaigrette

It’s all about the ratio! Can you change the ratio of oil to vinegar to better suit your taste? You betcha!

And here’s a little secret: Sometimes you need to change the ratio due to the ingredients you use. 

The basic ratio is 3 to 1; however, many people prefer a 4 to 1 ratio. It may depend upon the acidity of your vinegar.

Here’s the most basic vinaigrette recipe:

  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar (or balsamic, apple cider, rice, sherry or other wine vinegar)
  • Salt (kosher or sea salt is best — add to vinegar to dissolve into the vinaigrette; add to finished product to remain whole)
  • Black pepper (fresh ground is best

A good base for building other vinaigrettes:

  • 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (can substitute any mustard – try flavored mustards like honey mustard)
  • Salt (again, kosher or sea salt is best)
  • Black pepper (fresh ground)

Italian

  • Basic vinaigrette (use red wine vinegar)
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh garlic (minced)
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Lemon Dressing

  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon dried oregano

Balsamic Vinaigrette

  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh garlic (minced)
  • 1 pinch Italian seasoning (optional)
