Calories 163kcal
Ingredients
- 4 ounces strawberries stemmed (see note 1)
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 2 tbsp honey or sugar, or less to taste (see note 2)
- 1 teaspoon dried mustard
- 1/4 cup olive oil (see note 3)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a blender, add strawberries, vinegar, sugar, and dried mustard. Blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the oil.
- Season to taste with salt (I like /14 teaspoon). You should have about 1 cup dressing (cover and refrigerate until serving time). Use within 4 days.
Notes
- Strawberries: Frozen strawberries work too; thaw before adding to the blender.
- Honey: Honey makes for a sweeter vinaigrette than using sugar. For either sweetener, start with 1 tablespoon (or even less) and add more to taste.
- Olive oil: Choose a light olive oil or any other neutral oil such as vegetable, avocado, or sunflower oil.
- Yield: This Strawberry Vinaigrette recipe makes about 1/2 cup (4 ounces) of salad dressing, enough for 4 servings, 2 tablespoons each.
- Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Shake to recombine before using.
- Make ahead: Make Strawberry Vinaigrette up to 3 days in advance; shake to recombine before using.
