“It will change the taste considerably”: Cyril Lignac shares his secrets for preparing a vinaigrette “that travels”!

In summer, say goodbye to overly hot and filling meals, there is nothing better than salads for lunch. Whether you opt for the eternal tomato/mozzarella or the Greek salad, to give them some pep, it is important to add a vinaigrette that has flavor. Indeed, this simple sauce can change everything. Generally, we choose a classic: olive oil and vinegar. However, there are many other combinations.

It is possible to change the oil and add a few very simple ingredients to give it character. If we shared with you the vinaigrette ideas of the former winner Mohamed Cheikh of Top Chef, today we reveal the perfect vinaigrette of Cyril Lignac. A preparation that invites you to travel and that will be ideal to enhance your tomato salad.

So here’s how to do it.

To accompany his tomato salad, Cyril Lignac decided to play the originality card. He dared to prepare a vinaigrette, not very traditional, which will take your taste buds on a journey. As for the quantities, do them by eye according to the size of your dish. As for the ingredients, the chef opts for toasted sesame oil rather than olive oil. This will bring a lot of flavor and will go perfectly with the soy sauce that the chef adds.

Finally, a little rice vinegar will do the trick to bring a little acidity. Mix everything together and add a little mustard to give strength to your vinaigrette.

Finally, the ingredient that will make all the difference is none other than finely chopped onions. According to Cyril Lignac, this is what will “significantly change the taste of traditional salad dressing.” You can then serve it with your tomato salad. The tomato and the sauce will go perfectly together and will be ideal to accompany your barbecue or even your fish during your next summer meals.

It’s your turn. Enjoy your meal!
