Poppy Seed Vinaigrette

This is my all time favorite salad dressing! As long you you know the base for a vinaigrette, which is a simple base of olive oil and vinegar or acid, whisked rapidly to emulsify. Shallot has a light onion and garlic mixed flavor to balance the sweet sugar and tangy vinegar and mustard. 

Ingredients: 

1/2 cup olive oil 

3 Tablespoons Apple cider vinegar

3 Tablespoons red wine vinegar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon spicy or Dijon mustard

1/4 cup shallot

3 Tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon poppy seeds

Supplies:

Blender

Measuring cups

Measuring spoons

Directions:

Combine all ingredients in blender. Blend on high until pureed and smooth. 

Tips: 

Instead of whisking and blending this vinaigrette by hand, let the blender to the work for you. With this method, you don't have to worry about a slow drizzle.
