French Dinner/Simple Vinaigrette


This is a simple vinaigrette that everyone should know.


VINAIGRETTE

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons vinegar – red wine or sherry

Kosher Salt to taste

Whisk mustard with vinegar until creamy.
Slowly whisk in oils.  Keep whisking until mixture becomes thick.

I always add some kosher salt to my lettuce when tossing.
