Brazilian Vinaigrette Recipes

VINAGRETE (BRAZILIAN TOMATO SLAW)

Steps:

• Mix tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, onion, parsley, lime juice, olive oil, green onions, cilantro, vinegar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Let stand at room temperature until flavors combine, about 3 hours.

Steps:

• Dice peppers, onions, and tomatoes.
• Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl.
• Let mixture sit for a while to bring out the flavors. (I prefer the vinaigrette a little on the colder side so I refrigerate it).
• ** Side note: If you're going to add salt do it just before serving (salt will cause the tomatoes to dehydrate.) Enjoy!

SIMPLE VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Set a medium bowl on a kitchen towel shaped like an "O" (this helps keep the bowl steady while whisking). Whisk together the vinegar, mustard, garlic, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in the bowl. Slowly drizzle in the oil while whisking continuously until the mixture is combined and blended well. Use right away, or refrigerate in a sealed container for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix green and red peppers, onions, tomatoes, vinegar and olive oil. Hint: add salt to the salsa right before serving it. Salt dehydrates the tomatoes in the mixture if let for long time. Brazilian Vinaigrette Salsa is great with Brazilian Barbecues or on top of any meat, fish and sausage.
