I like the flavor of red wine vinegar, but some versions can be extremely acidic. In vinaigrette, the vinegar gets the last word, so make sure yours is good quality. Look for vinegar with acidity between 5 and 6 percent � any higher, and the vinaigrette will be harsh.

1. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk very well. Or, if you have the technology, mix the vinaigrette with a handheld mixer; or place the mixture (in 2 batches) in a blender jar and combine on low speed for 10 seconds, or blend (in 2 batches) in a food processor. 2. Transfer to a quart jar with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate until ready to use. The vinaigrette keeps refrigerated for up to 3 weeks; shake or stir before using.
