Jenn on 2026-06-27 (5 stars): My first attempt at balsamic vinaigrette…this is a fantastic recipe! I will put it in the blender just to get it a bit thicker but this was perfect!! Thank you!
Marci Wutke on 2026-06-24 (5 stars): This dressing was so good that it made me eat a lot of my vegetables!
Thanks so much.
Dee on 2026-06-22 (5 stars): You are Right! After trying several other recipes, I found yours..and after I made it, I told myself, "I Found It! The best flavor, for one, and the perfect ratio of ingredients, for another. One comment I want to thank you for is the one about putting it in a blender for a thicker dressing...! I Loved it! It's now my favorite way to make this recipe!
Eric Pedersen on 2026-06-09 (5 stars): I tried it, didn't care for it as I personally do not like Dijon mustard. It's a personal preference, I did not think it would stand out as much as it did. I made it again using stone ground mustard. Works for me!
Debby Farmer on 2026-05-30 (5 stars): This vinaigrette deserves five stars. I made ours with my immersion blender and loves the thick texture. I’ve been looking for the perfect balsamic vinaigrette. This is it!
