Red Wine Vinaigrette

Perfect Salad dressing for when you are trying to stay away from those creamy white dressings. The Dijon mustard gives it that zing that satisfies your taste buds.

2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp finely chopped shallot
1 1/2 tsps Dijon mustard
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/8 tsp of kosher salt
1/8 tsp of freshly ground black pepper

Combine vinegar and shallot.  Let stand 5 minutes. Whisk in mustard. Add oil in a thin, steady stream, whisking constantly until combined. Stir in salt and pepper.

Use immediately or cover and chill for up to 3 days before using.  If chilled, let stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes and whisk before using.

Makes about 1/3 cup of dressing.
