Being on the hypoallergenic diet I needed to find a dressing that contained ingredients allowed. This dressing is EXCELLENT! I used an organic balsamic vinegar, greek style EVOO, and organic apple cider vinegar brown mustard. I even washed out the glass bottle from a store bought dressing to take this dressing to work for the week. Also used as the marinade for "Zesty Asparagus" recipe on this site.
I have to agree with Dadcooks. If you have a good quality balsamic vinegar, this vinaigrette is spectacular. (To make a cheap balsamic vinegar better tasting, reduce it to half in a non reactive metal pot over low heat. It takes time but worth it if you want that yummy taste).
