Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 0.25 cup red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Peel and mince the garlic cloves to ensure even distribution of flavor in the dressing.
In a medium-sized bowl or a glass jar with a lid, combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, and lemon juice.
Add the minced garlic, oregano, and dijon mustard to the mixture.
Season the dressing with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the quantities if desired to suit your palate.
Whisk all the ingredients vigorously for about 30 seconds until they are well combined, or if using a jar, seal the lid tightly and shake the jar for about 30 seconds until the ingredients are emulsified.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding a pinch more salt or a few more drops of lemon juice for additional acidity if desired.
Store the dressing in the refrigerator and use within a week for best flavor. Before serving, give it another shake or whisk to re-emulsify, as the ingredients may separate over time.
