Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.25 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar (unfiltered)
- 1 teaspoon Pure maple syrup (optional, for a hint of sweetness)
- 1 clove Garlic, finely minced or grated
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Filtered water (to adjust consistency)
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl or a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup (if using), and minced garlic.
Add the sea salt and black pepper (if using).
Whisk the ingredients together briskly with a fork or a small whisk, or shake the jar vigorously until the dressing is well emulsified and blended.
Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more lemon juice for extra tang, maple syrup for sweetness, or a pinch of salt, if desired.
If the dressing is too thick for your liking, stir in the filtered water, a little at a time, until your preferred consistency is achieved.
Use immediately to dress your favorite salad, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Shake well before each use.
