Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for White Balsamic Vinaigrette
  1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the white balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, Italian seasoning, and salt until fully combined. This should take about 1 to 2 minutes.
  2. While continuously whisking, slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil in a steady stream, which should take about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  3. Continue whisking until the vinaigrette thickens and achieves a glossy texture, about 1 to 2 minutes more.
  4. Once emulsified, taste the vinaigrette and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  5. Transfer the vinaigrette to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week.
