Citrus Tarragon Vinaigrette

This simple vinaigrette can be made in a blender.  First, combine all ingredients (except the canola oil) in a blender and turn on medium speed.  Once everything is blended, slowly drizzle the canola oil in while the blender is still running.  The oil will emulsify the vinaigrette.  The end result is not a thick vinaigrette, but a very light refreshing flavorful vinaigrette.  We use this at the restaurant as a dressing, marinade, or basting on cooked foods to give it a sheen.  It goes great with poultry, seafood, and pork.
