Provençal Vinaigrette
- Details
Romantic visions of the south of France never disappoint and neither does this playful provencal vinaigrette. Our Provencal Salt is the star, throwing in a burst of salt and herbs that makes the other ingredients dance. I had the pleasure of growing fresh chervil in my garden this year and it was a sweet addition but don’t skip the recipe if you can’t find it. Marjoram is delightful as well. Enjoy this vinaigrette on your favorite summer salads- green, potato or bean!
