Traditional French Vinaigrette Recipe
by Anne Maxfield on June 4, 2012
This traditional French vinaigrette is great on salads, as a sauce for chilled artichokes, or even a marinade for grilling chicken. Add the juice of half a lemon, a small minced garlic clove, some herbs de Provence, if you’d like. The Accidental Locavore prefers a more acidic vinaigrette, if you don’t add more oil. This is enough dressing for a two-person salad:
