- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- ⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Combine all of the ingredients for the balsamic vinaigrette into a jar. Shake virogorusly until all combined. If you don't have a jar, combine all of the ingredients except for the olive oil in a bowl. Slowly pour olive oil into the mixture, whisking until the oil is emulsified.
