Citrus vinaigrette

The go-to vinaigrette that brightens everything it touches.

  • Prep time: 5 minutes
  • Cook time: 0 minutes

On a green salad, grilled vegetables, a fish fillet, or even as a quick marinade: this pomelo juice vinaigrette swaps vinegar for a rounder, more fragrant acidity that changes everything. A hint of honey, a spoonful of whole grain mustard, and a bit of zest are all you need. Five minutes, and you've got a jar that keeps for three days in the fridge.
