Creamy Mustard Vinaigrette

Here is a simple but good vinaigrette recipe made creamy with the addition of an egg yolk. If you’d prefer it without the egg just leave it out of the recipe. A tablespoon of cream can replace it if you feel better about cream than an egg.

1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons coarse grain mustard
1 clove garlic, grated
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoon white wine vinegar

1/2 cup olive oil

To make the vinaigrette combine all ingredients except oil in a small dish and whisk to blend well. Add the olive oil by a slow drizzle, whisking constantly to emulsify the dressing. Taste and correct seasoning.
