Basic Vinaigrette This recipe may be easily modified by changing the oils and vinegars used. Makes 1½ cups 1 garlic clove or small shallot, peeled (cut shallot into ½-inch pieces) 3 tablespoons wine vinegar 3 tablespoons white vinegar or lemon juice 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard ½ teaspoon kosher salt ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper ½ cup extra virgin olive oil ½ cup vegetable oil or light flavored olive oil Place garlic or shallot in work bowl; pulse on Chop 5 times. Scrape the work bowl. Add the vinegars, mustard, salt and pepper. Process on Chop until smooth, about 5 seconds. With the machine running on Chop, add the oils slowly, in a steady stream, through one of the holes in the recessed area of the cover. After all the oil has been added, process on Grind for an additional 10 seconds. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. This dressing is best made at least ½ hour ahead of serving. Vinaigrette will keep well for one week if in refrigerator, covered. Remove from refrigerator about 30 minutes before serving; it may need to be reprocessed if separation has occurred.

Makes about 2 cups ¾ ounce peeled fresh ginger root, cut into ½-inch pieces 2 garlic cloves, peeled ½ cup low-sodium soy sauce ¹⁄³ cup canola or other vegetable oil ¼ cup + ½ tablespoon hoisin sauce ¼ cup + ½ tablespoon Asian sesame oil ¼ cup + ½ tablespoon rice wine vinegar ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper Place the ginger root and garlic in the work bowl.

Cooking Suggestion: Pour ²⁄³ of the marinade into a resealable plastic bag and add two 1-pound trimmed pork tenderloins. Coat the meat thoroughly with the marinade and refrigerate for 2 hours. Remove the tenderloins from the marinade and place on a rack; discard the marinade. Roast in a preheated 475°F oven for 20 to 22 minutes, turning after 10 minutes. Remove from oven. The temperature of the meat should be about 150°F; it will rise to 160-165°F while resting. Let rest for 10 minutes; slice and serve with remaining reserved marinade drizzled over the meat.
