Basil Vinegar Vinaigrette



Do you remember this? It has been very successful and I still have at least half of the basil remaining in the jar of vinegar. It occured to me the other day that the vinegar might be really nice in a Vinaigrette. I was right. I strained out some of the extra vinegar to use.

Above you can see the various ingredients. I had not finished the recipe when I took this picture, so you won't see as much vinegar in the little measuring cup as I actually used.

Basil Vinegar Vinaigrette

1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup basil vinegar
1 teaspoon RealSalt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Combine all the ingredients in a jar with a lid:



Shake it up and serve!



We used it on a fresh green salad from the greenhouse. Oh, my... what a treat on a snowy day in December!
