Method

Restated from the original video

1. 1

   Put the shallot in a small bowl with the vinegar and salt.

2. 2

   Leave it for 5 min so the shallot softens and loses its raw bite.

3. 3

   Whisk in the mustard until smooth.

4. 4

   Pour in the oil in a thin stream, whisking all the time, until the dressing thickens and turns cloudy and pale.

5. 5

   Grind in some pepper, taste on a leaf of salad and adjust with more salt or a few drops of vinegar.

6. 6

   Dress the salad just before serving. Whisk or shake again if it separates on standing.
