Yield: about 2 1/2 cups

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup (4 ounces) walnuts, lightly toasted (see Note)
  2. 1 cup water
  3. 1/2 cup sherry vinegar
  4. 2 tablespoons minced shallots
  5. 2 teaspoons fine sea salt
  6. 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  7. 1/2 cup olive oil
  8. 1/2 cup imported walnut oil

Instructions

  1. Place all of the ingredients, except the oils, in a blender and process on high speed. With the machine running, gradually add the olive and walnut oils until the vinaigrette is emulsified, about 1 minute. Refrigerate until ready to serve. (The vinaigrette can be prepared up to 1 week in advance, covered and refrigerated.)
  2. Note: To toast walnuts, place the walnuts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F. oven, stirring occasionally, until toasted, 8 to 12 minutes. Cool completely.
