Simple Balsamic Vinaigrette
Last Saturday, we went out to eat at a great Italian restaurant. When the server brought over some bread for the table, he also set down a small plate of their house-made balsamic vinaigrette to use as a dipping sauce. We know balsamic vinaigrette isn't something anyone would usually crave, but when we had one taste of theirs, we knew we had to go home and make our own. By the end of the meal, we had finished off two baskets of bread and two plates of the vinaigrette. You're about to do the same. This is our favorite dressing. It's fast and simple, and it goes well with just about any kind of savory dish. But you could always pair it with a fresh soft loaf of Ciabatta bread. You might need to buy two.
