Description
A vibrant dressing combining ripe peaches, honey, and Dijon mustard for a perfect summer addition to salads and grilled meats.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups ripe peaches (diced)
- 1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 cup olive oil (extra-virgin recommended)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prep the peaches: Begin by washing and peeling your peaches. Cut them into small, diced pieces, allowing their sweet juices to spill as you chop.
- Combine ingredients: In a blender or food processor, add the diced peaches, honey, Dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Emulsify: Blend the mixture on high for 30 seconds until smooth.
- Incorporate olive oil: With the blender running on low, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until fully combined.
- Taste and adjust: Give your vinaigrette a taste and adjust with additional salt, pepper, or honey.
- Chill: Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavors.
Notes
Make-ahead tips: Prepare this vinaigrette a day in advance for deeper flavors. It also works as a marinade for chicken or fish.
