Sweet Vinaigrette

Ingredients
2 Tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
2 Tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
1 Tablespoon Wholegrain mustard

Method
Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl or jug.

Thoughts
Personally, I like to toss the salad leaves in the dressing so the taste spreads through the salad instead of pouring the dressing over the salad on the plate.

It's fun to explore with vinaigrettes. I found this simple combination tonight and thought it worked particularly well. It has an unusually large proportion of vinegar to oil, but with the slightly sweet mustard this works really well. We had it on a salad made with a variety of leaves and cherry tomatoes cut in half.
