Blend all the ingredients on high speed until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. If the dressing is too thick, add water, one tablespoon at a time, to achieve your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
Transfer the dressing into a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
