  1. Put All Items in a small jar. Seal jar and shake vigorously.
  2. Shake vigorously again before using. If refrigerated and the Olive Oil has solidified, let it warm up a bit before shaking.
NOTES:
  1. Balsamic Vinegar:

      A good grade of Industrial Balsamic is fine for dressings. For details see our Balsamic Vinegar page.
  2. Dijon Mustard:

      The mustard stabilizes the dressing and improves adhesion to the salad. You could reduce it to 1 teaspoon, or even omit it if you wish.
  3. U.S. measure: t=teaspoon, T=Tablespoon, c=cup, qt=quart, oz=ounce, #=pound, cl=clove in=inch, ar=as required tt=to taste
