Ingredients

  • 1 clove garlic
  • 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 9 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • sea salt, to taste
  • freshly ground pepper, to taste
To prepare the vinaigrette, first mince the garlic. Using either a bowl or a jar, mix together the garlic, vinegar and the olive oil. Make sure to use a quality olive oil, as this dressing is all about simple, but quality, ingredients. Finish with a good pinch or two of salt and pepper and shake to emulsify. This dressing will keep in the refrigerator for a couple of days.
