French vinaigrette is a classic dressing and everyone should know how two make it! Most cooks have their own house dressing and for good reason. Shop-bought dressings are usually expensive, high-FODMAP and full of unhealthy preservatives, making a salad more of a junk food meal than the healthy one it’s hailed to be. This is my low-FODMAP go-to house dressing.
This vinaigrette contains just a few simple ingredients which you probably have in your larder already. It’s easy to make, tastes delicious and can transform a salad!
Anyone can make it, you just pour and shake!
While classic French vinaigrette does not have garlic in it, my mums version does and it’s the one I grew up on and loved so my low-FODMAP version includes garlic infused olive oil (goo).
I think this dressing is delicious as it is but it’s also a good base which you can taste and season as you go.
As shallots aren’t Fodmap I’ve omitted them here and I think it tastes great but you can always add some spring onion greens or chives.
I like my vinaigrettes quite vinegary but if you prefer you can always adjust the ratios (using less vinegar) to make yours richer and smoother.
This goes well with my Mediterranean Stuffed Peppers, Easy Vegan Lasagna, Lentil Nut Loaf and Lemon & Chilli Stuffed Peppers amongst other dishes!
Enjoy!
