Nordstrom’s Champagne Vinaigrette

I love all of the dressings in the Nordstrom Cafe and this is another good one!  

Ingredients:

1 shallot, quartered

1 small clove garlic

1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard

2 Tbsp. sugar

1/8 tsp. kosher salt

Dash of freshly ground white pepper

½ c. Champagne vinegar

1 ½ c. canola oil

Directions:

In a blender or food processor fitted with a metal blade, process the shallot and garlic until finely minced.  Add the mustard, sugar, salt, pepper, and vinegar.  Process to combine the ingredients thoroughly.  With the machine running, gradually add the oil in a thin, steady stream to form an emulsion.  Taste and adjust the seasoning.
