This is a good basic recipe. Add salt and pepper and a little drizzle of agave syrup if sugar not your thing. Perfect. A bruised good garlic clove sitting in it for a couple of days brings it up a notch.

How is this a good recipe if it doesn’t include salt and or pepper? Or sugar? It is an appalling recipe. This is the sort of thing that makes people not want to use BBC good food. Brown nosing comments like that is exactly the reason that these recipes still at the top of the Google list.

My go-to basic recipe. I agree it needs salt and pepper. My husband has a lower tolerance than me for vinegar so I add a tiny bit of honey or sugar to it.

My late Mother in Law, she was brought up in France and taught me this many years ago. A pinch of salt and pepper. It's the real thing.
