1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 ⁄ teaspoon freshly ground pepper

2 ⁄ cup extra virgin olive oil

Place the garlic in the blender jar and cover jar. Set on Low. Use the
Pulse function to chop the garlic, 5 times. Add the mustard, vinegar,
salt and pepper. Turn the blender on and blend for 10 to 15 seconds.
With the blender running, add the oils in a slow, steady stream,
taking about 20 seconds, then blend for 20 seconds longer until
completely emulsified.
You may change the Basic Vinaigrette by changing the flavor of the
vinegar, mustard or oil. Try using fresh lemon juice and a little honey
for a honey-mustard vinaigrette.
Add fresh herbs, sun-dried tomatoes, or pesto for other flavor
changes.
