Delicate and balanced with a light zing from crisp Champagne vinegar, this is a lovely and versatile vinaigrette recipe to keep in your back pocket. It's ideal for drizzling over tender lettuces, or use it to dress salads combining fresh herbs, fruit like apples or pears, and pungent cheese like gorgonzola. —Julie Andrews, Rockford, Michigan
