Servings: 4
Ingredients
1/3 cup Lavender Lambrusco Vinegar
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon dried culinary lavender
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Assorted fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries) for serving
Fresh lavender sprigs for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, sea salt, and black pepper.
Slowly whisk in the olive oil until the mixture is well combined and emulsified.
Gently fold in the dried lavender, allowing it to infuse into the dressing for about 10 minutes.
Strain the dressing through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the lavender bits, if desired, for a smoother consistency.
Toss the assorted fresh berries in a large bowl with a little bit of the dressing, just enough to coat.
Drizzle additional dressing over the plated berries and garnish with fresh lavender sprigs, if using.
Serve immediately and enjoy the elegant blend of flavors!
