Tired of pricey supermarket dressings? As a home cook who's perfected budget-friendly recipes over years, I recommend ditching them for this fresh, homemade vinaigrette. It's simple, customizable, and far cheaper.
For a classic vinaigrette, combine equal parts oil and vinegar in a wide-mouthed glass bottle. Add salt and pepper to taste. Shake well before each use—the bottle keeps everything contained without mess.
This homemade version stores beautifully for weeks in a dark cupboard, preserving vitamin C and flavor better than store-bought options.
Whipping up your own vinaigrette is straightforward and slashes grocery bills. Skip supermarket runs for dressings and simplify your routine.
Pro tip from frugal kitchens: Reuse a wide-mouthed glass bottle for free instead of buying one new.
