What’s not to love about homemade vinaigrettes and dressings?  This is one of our favorite vinaigrettes. It goes with just about any ingredient you would put into a salad. It’s lovely on a platter of sliced tomatoes and cucumbers. I think this would be amazing on a cold potato salad! I know it’s fabulous to drizzle over roasted vegetables. We had this recently over roasted cauliflower. It was outstanding.
