Homemade Basil Vinaigrette
This homemade basil vinaigrette is a wonderful salad dressing packed full of herby basil goodness. Use on everything from salads, to roasted veggies, and even grilled meats. Keto, gluten-free, sugar-free and vegan.
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 shallot chopped
- 2 teaspoons pink salt
- 2 teaspoons Besti Monk fruit and Allulose Sweetener
- 2 cups fresh basil leaves
- 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
- 3/4 cup olive oil (you want a high quality fruity one)
Instructions
- Place the salt, sugar, mustard, shallot and basil in a food processor. Pulse several times to combine. Scrape the sides, add the vinegar, and pulse again.
- While the food processor is running, slowly pour in the olive oil. It may sputter a little out of the open cap, so hold your hand over it to minimize splashing.
- Scrape the sides down again, cover and purée everything for 1-2 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.
- Store in an air tight container in the fridge for up to a week.
