Blackberry Balsamic Vinaigrette

Inspired by our Blackberry Balsamic Vinegar, we could not resist to make a Blackberry Balsamic Vinaigrette! We are overjoyed with how it turned out and couldn't help but add this to our recipes. It goes great on a fresh berry, arugula, goat cheese salad or as a chicken marinade. We’re talking, really, really delicious! For this recipe, we used Organic Arbosano Extra Virgin Olive Oil and our Blackberry Balsamic Vinegar.

Ingredients:

• 1½ cup fresh blackberries
• ½ cup Blackberry Balsamic Vinegar
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1½ teaspoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ¾ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 cup Organic Arbosano Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Directions:

1. Add the everything except the Organic Arbosano Extra Virgin Olive Oil into a small saucepan and place it over low heat. Stirring and cook just to dissolve the sugar and warm the mixture, about 3 minutes.
2. Remove the pan from the heat and use the back of a fork to break up the blackberries. (We liked to keep them partially intact.)
3. Gradually whisk in the oil and blend until it's completely emulsified.
