Vinaigrette (disambiguation)

Vinaigrette (disambiguation)

The word vinaigrette or vinegarette (from the diminutive of the French term "vinaigre" meaning vinegar) can refer to:

* Vinaigrette (food), the salad dressing or sauce.
* A small container with a perforated top, used to contain an aromatic substance such as vinegar or smelling salts, especially popular for women in Victorian times to combat the aroma from the waste products common in cities.
* A type of Russian potato salad, the main difference with the "traditional" Russian potato salad, also known as "Olivie" is that it's prepared with an addition of beets, which give it a distinctive red coloring, and it is dressed with oil, instead of mayonnaise.
