Notes

 
STORING It will keep for up to 2 weeks. Before each use, just give it a big shake since the oil and vinegar will likely separate and solidify. 
 
WHY DOES MY HOMEMADE VINAIGRETTE SOLIDIFY?
Olive oil is made with olives and their skin has natural waxes that protect the fruit as it grows. This harmless natural wax is what make the vinaigrette solidify at low temperature. So this solidifying process is completely natural and doesn’t affect the quality at all.
 
HOW TO FIX A SOLIDIFIED VINAIGRETTE? 
Simply let it sit out on the counter at room temperature for about 10 - 15 minutes, then give it a good shake. If you are in a rush, you may also run the jar (with the lid on) under warm water to help expedite the process. It will be good as new!
