Herbed Vinaigrette

Herbed Vinaigrette
Homegrown salad greens deserve a great dressing, and this herbed vinaigrette is a classic.

Rub inside of a wooden salad bowl by pressing 1 clove smashed garlic with a pinch of salt. Mince the garlic and add to bowl. Measure in 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil with 2 tbsp herb infused or sherry vinegar, 1 tsp Dijon style mustard, 1 tsp maple syrup and 1 tsp each fresh chopped parsley and chives. Whisk until well blended. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Toss with 4 cups of Cook's Mild Mix mesclun salad greens.
