Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 clove garlic, minced (more or less for your personal taste)
1 small shallot, minced
3 Tbsp sherry vinegar (best quality you can find, makes a huge difference) you can use balsamic or red wine vinegar (6 or 7 percent acidity), but sherry is the best.
1/2 tsp coarse-grained salt (sea salt)
1 Tbsp dijon mustard
4 to 5 Tbsp olive oil
3 Tbsp flat leaf parsley (rough chopped) or mixed herbs
cracked black pepper to your taste

Steps:

1. Place garlic, shallot, vinegar and salt in a smal bowl and let stand for at least 30 minutes. This will take the peppery bite out of the garlic and shallot.
2. Whisk in mustard, oil and herbs.
3. Add pepper to taste.
4. This is also wonderful as a marinade and served as a dipping sauce for chicken.
