Ingredients

2 Tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Honey
Ã¢ÂÂ2 cup canola oil
Ã¢ÂÂ2 cup loosely packed fresh
Ã¢ÂÂ4 cup minced fresh chives
1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon
3 Anchovy fillets in olive oil
1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon Olive oil
1 tablespoon White wine vinegar
Ã¢ÂÂ4 cup crÃÂ¨me fraÃÂ®che

Directions

1
In a food processor, combine the anchovy fillets, minced tarragon, and chives and pulse until finely chopped.
2
Add the white wine vinegar, lemon juice, and honey to the processor and blend until the anchovies are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
3
With the machine running, slowly drizzle in the canola oil and olive oil in a steady stream to create a thick emulsion.

Fold in the crÃÂ¨me fraÃÂ®che gently until just combined, taking care not to break the emulsion.

Note

Storage: Transfer the dressing to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 1 week. The flavors will meld and intensify overnight.

Substitutions: If you prefer a dairy-free version, substitute the crÃÂ¨me fraÃÂ®che with a thick Greek yogurt or a cashew cream. For a lighter option, reduce the amount of oil.

Tip: If the dressing separates, simply blend it again briefly. If it is too thick, thin it out with a teaspoon of warm water or additional lemon juice.

Ingredient Note: The ingredient list mentions "fresh" without specifying the herb; tarragon is a common pairing in this style of dressing and has been included in the instructions. If you intended parsley or cilantro, substitute accordingly.
