First, you need vegetable oil. Four tablespoons will be enough for several servings.

Secondly, you can't do without vinegar - one teaspoon. However, if the salad contains sour ingredients (pickled cucumbers, sauerkraut), you can add less.

Thirdly, you need, oddly enough, granulated sugar - also one teaspoon. The sweet ingredient will emphasize the taste of the other components.

Fourthly, the sauce should be spicy. Therefore, you need to add one teaspoon of mustard.

The other two ingredients are salt and pepper to taste.

Mix all the above ingredients thoroughly. The result will be an excellent vinaigrette dressing.

Don't rush to eat the salad immediately after adding the sauce. Wait at least a few minutes for the dish to soak in well.
