Did You Know?

Commercial vinaigrette
preparations are often emulsified with lecithin or similar additives,
while fresh preparations can be made with egg yolk or more weakly
emulsified with mustard or left as mixtures that will separate. This is
the most common use of the word.
In the English-speaking word, vinaigrettes are also widely known as
French dressing.
