To customize your vinegarette check out my pairings of vinegars and oils under the recipe heading of "Customize Your Vinegarette". You won't be sorry.

Cooks Notes: You may try mixing dressing by hand but it will separate after a short while. I found that by mixing in a food processor or blender the dressing stays together indefinitely.
