For a smoother vinaigrette, consider using a blender or immersion blender to emulsify the ingredients. The vinaigrette can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Bring to room temperature and whisk before serving. Experiment with different types of balsamic vinegar to find your preferred flavor profile. A white balsamic will offer a milder taste and lighter color. Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less sugar to taste. Try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.
