Greatest Vinaigrette Ever

You will have to refer back to this often. I invented this dressing, and it's so amazing that part of me wants to share, and part of me wants it to be my secret forever. (Like my banana bread spices... good luck ever getting those out of me.) Lucky for you, I've decided to share:

GREATEST VINAIGRETTE EVER

Ingredients:
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar (I think I have Sun of Italy or something like that? It's nice and mild and sort of sweet on its own)
  • 4 teaspoons olive oil (Extra Virgin of course)
  • 1 crushed garlic clove (fresh)
  • pinch of sugar (more if your vinegar is more acidic)
  • pinch of salt
  • generous grinding of pepper (I use a fresh ground peppercorn blend)

Directions:

  • Mix together
  • Taste, and adjust according to you liking
  • Let sit for a while so the garlic with incorporate
  • Serve

NOTE: I make this fresh, and never refrigerate it. This is enough to generously dress two or three salads.
