We had some French bread left over from dinner last night and some cooked shrimp, so we threw together a quick dipping sauce with ingredients we had around the house.

INGREDIENTS:

1 Shallot, finely chopped
1 Clove Garlic, finely chopped
4 Leaves Basil, chopped
Zest of 1 Orange
Juice of 1 Orange
1/4 Cup Balsamic Vinegar
1 Teaspoon Mustard
1/2 Cup Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to Taste

DIRECTIONS:

Combine all ingredients in a bowl except for the olive oil. Slowly whisk in olive oil until the sauce thickens.

Serve as a dipping sauce with bread or shrimp or anything else you like to dip. Also makes a yummy salad dressing.

    Love this dipping sauce….it has some serious zing! I think you should bottle it, sell it or just give it to those who love it!
