Shallot dressing

Shallot dressing

A lively vinaigrette with shallots for extra bite. It’s particularly good tossed through a mix of bitter winter salad leaves, such as chicory or watercress. Unlike some dressings, it doesn’t stay fully emulsified for long, so give it a whisk before using. Store covered in the fridge for up to 10 days.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
  • 90ml extra virgin olive oil
  • 1½ tsp fine sea salt
  • 4 small shallots, finely chopped

Method

  1. Put the mustard in a mixing bowl with the vinegar and lemon juice; whisk together. Gradually whisk in the olive oil and season with the salt and a few good grinds of black pepper. Stir in the finely chopped shallots and leave the dressing to stand for a few minutes before using. It tastes quite salty on its own but will seem balanced when used to dress robust salad leaves.
