Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons Poppy seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the honey, apple cider vinegar, and fresh lemon juice.
Add the Dijon mustard, salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
While continuously whisking, slowly drizzle in the olive oil to emulsify the vinaigrette. This will help it become smooth and creamy.
Once the olive oil is incorporated, stir in the poppy seeds until evenly distributed.
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper, if needed.
Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar or bottle with a lid for easy serving and storage.
Refrigerate for up to 1 week. Shake well before using, as separation may occur.
