Once you get a handle on making a basic vinaigrette you can create variation by changing the acid or the oil or by adding other ingredients.
Ingredients:

- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 small shallot, finely chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Directions:
- Place the lemon juice, honey, and shallot in a small bowl and whisk together.
- Continue whisking while slowly adding the oil, whisking until emulsified.
- Season with salt and pepper.
