Description

This fig balsamic dressing is tangy and slightly sweet with bold balsamic flavor. It is perfectly smooth and amazing on salad, roasted vegetables, sandwiches, pizza, caprese, bruschetta and beyond!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 tablespoons fig jam
  • 1/4 cup good quality balsamic vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 small clove garlic, finely minced or grated
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

In a small bowl or mason jar, add the fig jam, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, salt, pepper and olive oil.

Vigorously shake or whisk until smooth and emulsified. Or use an immersion blender to blitz the dressing until creamy. You may or may not want to thin with a tablespoon or so of water if your dressing is thicker than you like. The dressing will naturally be thicker after sitting in the fridge-add a splash of water, stir and you’re good to go!
