Blood orange vinaigrette

This dressing gets it's sweetness from balsamic vinegar and juice from a blood orange. No sugar needed! It gains an amazing creaminess when shaken and emulsified with a good organic olive oil. It's super simple, easy, oh so yummy, and healthy!

It goes well over any salad, can be used as a marinade, and tastes great as an acid component for sautéed braising greens, like chard or kale. No blood orange? You can use any citrus - grapefruit, lemon, or orange would be a welcome guest to this party. You can even sub out the purple onion for garlic or shallots, or the tarragon for thyme or oregano. It's a playground in a jar!
Grab a jar, and pour in:

• 1/2 cup olive oil
  
• 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  
• Juice from 1 blood orange
  
• 3 tablespoons finely diced purple onion
  
• Three pinches tarragon
  
• Two pinches kosher salt
  
• A couple pinches of ground black pepper
• If you like, a little ground mustard really gets it creamy. But, I get lynched for mustard...this is a please all recipe

Shake. Done! Yum.....
PS. Try this drizzled on any protein and broiled. Eggs, steak...yum. Even good on bread for panini. It's multi purpose!
