Classic vinaigrette dressing with mustard

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 5 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a classic vinaigrette with mustard? Add salt, sugar and mustard to the gravy boat. I took a spicy Russian one, but in general any kind you like or have on hand will do. Depending on the spiciness of the mustard, adjust its amount - add more of the less spicy mustard. You don’t have to add salt to the dressing, but salt the salad to taste already in the salad bowl.

2. STEP 2

   

   Add the next ingredient to the gravy boat - wine vinegar. It can be either white or red, there is no difference. In addition to wine, you can take apple cider vinegar or lemon juice.

3. STEP 3

   

   Next add sunflower oil. It would be better, of course, to take aromatic sunflower oil. This is a very Russian product, and it is thanks to it that the dressing will be enriched with the aroma of sunflower seeds. If you don’t like this kind of oil, then refined oil will do. The dressing will also be delicious with olive oil.

4. STEP 4

   

   And the last stage is hot ground pepper. I use ground black pepper. It would be better to use freshly ground pepper. It is incomparably more fragrant.

5. STEP 5

   

   Stir the dressing. Please note that mustard, vinegar and oil have different densities. Because of this, the mustard will always settle under its own weight to the bottom of the gravy boat. Therefore, it is unlikely that you will be able to stir the dressing until it is homogeneous. At this point the gas station is ready! All that remains is to season the vinaigrette with it and you can serve it to the table. Bon appetit!

Today I made a classic vinaigrette with mustard. I needed it to season the vinaigrette) Usually I just season with oil and salt. But I wanted something unusual. For cooking I took two types of oil: sunflower and mustard, both unrefined. I had homemade mustard, medium hot. In addition to sugar and salt, I added a freshly ground mixture of peppers. The dressing came out very flavorful! The spiciness was moderate, more pleasant than scorching. The vinegar added sourness, which goes well with pepper and mustard. Thanks to this dressing, the salad turned out tasty, piquant and a little new.
