1 cup pitted kalamata olives
1 lemon, zested with a peeler and juiced
½ cup olive oil
1 Tbsp Ararat blend
½ cup balsamic vinegar
¼ cup honey
½ tsp fine sea salt
In a food processor, pulse the kalamata olives and lemon zest pieces until roughly chopped.
Transfer to a bowl and whisk in the Ararat, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, honey, salt, and olive oil
When peeling the lemon zest, try to remove just the yellow zest. Too much white pith can make your vinaigrette bitter.
Depending on how salty the olives are, the salt quantity may need adjustment to taste.
The olives and lemon zest can be chopped by hand without a food processor.
If you don’t have Ararat you could try substituting with Cataluña or Pimenton.
