No Waste Dressing


When there's just a tiny bit of mustard left in the jar,don't throw it out. Instead,toss in a few ingredients,and shake a tangy Dijon vinaigrette right in the container. A crushed garlic clove,some chopped fresh herbs,tarragon, for instance and minced shallot will add the right flavor.

Pour in balsamic vinegar, season with salt and pepper, then close the lid and shake. Add olive oil (3 parts oil to 1 part vinegar), shake again to emulsify the dressing, and then drizzle over your favorite salad. With a tightly sealed lid,the dressing will keep in the refrigerator for up to one week.
