Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.25 cup Red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl or a mason jar with a lid, combine the red wine vinegar and fresh lemon juice.
Add the minced garlic and Dijon mustard to the mixture and whisk until well combined.
Gradually pour in the extra virgin olive oil in a steady stream while continuously whisking to emulsify the dressing.
Once the mixture is well combined, add the dried oregano, dried basil, dried thyme, sea salt, and ground black pepper.
Whisk the dressing thoroughly to ensure all the herbs and spices are evenly distributed.
If using a mason jar, secure the lid and shake the jar vigorously until the dressing is fully emulsified.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to taste.
Store the Greek dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before each use.
