Stone Ground Mustard Vinaigrette

Stone Ground Mustard Vinaigrette | A Salad For All Seasons

Mustardy vinaigrettes are so good and so versatile.  You know what I’m saying, you’ve had them plenty of times before. Right?

I think we are all accustomed to putting some Dijon into our salad dressings.  It tastes great and it’s a great emulsifier for the dressing.  But have you tried using other types of mustard?  I’ve used stone ground mustard in this particular vinaigrette.  I love the hearty taste and the pop of those coarse little mustard seeds.  Garlic, pinot grigio vinegar, pure maple syrup and some chives & parsley round out the flavor profile to make this one tart, tangy and luscious vinaigrette.

This is one of those salad dressings that you can put on most any salad.  Or just a plate of greens.

And the thing about salad dressings, is that you can adapt them to suit your tastes.  Want is sweeter?  Add honey instead of maple syrup.  Want it spicy?  Add some chopped jalapeno or red pepper flakes.  You get the idea!

I happen to collect mustard.  If you do, too, try one from your crazy collection.  I have a variety of mustards made with booze.  I bet those would be good, too!

And as with many vinegar & oil vinaigrettes, this would make a great marinade as well!

    Mustard made with booze? That definitely piques my interest as does this versatile vinaigrette. I would love to take a peek into your fridge to see the array of dressings and marinades you have on hand.
