Ingredients
- 1 large shallot (minced)
- 2 tablespoons hot water
- ¼ cup white wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped chives
- 1 garlic clove (minced)
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1 teaspoon sea salt or kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- In a measuring cup, add the shallots and hot water. Then stir in the white wine vinegar, and let it sit while you prep the chives and garlic.
- To the measuring cup, add the olive oil, dijon mustard, honey, salt, pepper, and garlic. Whisk everything together until it’s emulsified. Add the chives, and whisk again. Give it a taste, and adjust seasoning to taste.
Notes
Store this dressing in an airtight container for up to 1 week in the fridge. The chives will lose their vibrant green color after the first day, so if you want to make this ahead, we recommend adding the chives when you’re ready to serve it.
