Ingredients

Units Scale

Vinaigrette Ingredients

  • 1 ripe peach, peeled and diced (or 1/2 cup peach purée)
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme or 1 tsp fresh thyme (optional)

Instructions

  1. Blend the Base: Add the peeled and diced peach, honey, Dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder (if using) into a blender. Blend on medium speed until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Emulsify: With the blender running on low speed, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. This gradual addition helps to emulsify the dressing, resulting in a creamy and well-incorporated vinaigrette.
  3. Adjust the Flavor: Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add more honey to increase sweetness or more balsamic vinegar to enhance tanginess according to your preference.
  4. Serve & Store: Use the vinaigrette immediately to dress your salad or as desired. Alternatively, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Shake or stir well before each use as ingredients may separate.

Notes

  • For a smoother texture, substitute the diced peach with peach purée.
  • Fresh thyme can be used instead of dried thyme for a brighter herbal flavor.
  • Garlic powder is optional but adds a subtle depth of flavor.
  • If the vinaigrette thickens in the refrigerator, allow it to come to room temperature and whisk or blend again before serving.
  • Adjust salt levels depending on your taste and dietary needs.
