Note

Store any leftover vinaigrette in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Shake well or re-whisk before using, as the oil and vinegar may separate.

For a milder flavor, you can substitute half of the white-wine vinegar with water or lemon juice.

If fresh dill is unavailable, use 1 teaspoon of dried dill weed, though the flavor will be less vibrant.
