Method: 

Combine all the above ingredients in a large bowl and whisk until well combined. Transfer the sauce to a small bowl. The sauce will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Ravigoter in culinary French means to refresh, here with a dash of vinegar or lemon juice. It is used to enliven the flavor of anything from delicate crabmeat to a hearty standing rib roast of beef.
