1 large shallot, minced
2 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon sherry vinegar (or more to taste)
1 tablespoon warm water
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons honey (optional)
2 springs thyme, washed and stripped
1 large clove garlic, finely grated
Salt & freshly ground pepper (to taste)


Mix all the ingredients well. (This makes a lot of dressing...but it keeps well in the fridge, so you can mix up a batch and then use it as needed.)

Oh...and don't forget to make a salad to go underneath it.
