Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized Yellow onion
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Peel and finely chop the yellow onion. For a smoother dressing, you can grate the onion using a fine grater or blitz it in a small food processor until it becomes a paste.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until emulsified.
Stir in the finely chopped or grated onion and mix thoroughly. If the dressing seems too thick, add water one tablespoon at a time until you reach the desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or honey if needed to balance the flavors.
Transfer the dressing into a jar or bottle and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Shake or stir well before using. Serve drizzled over your favorite salad greens or roasted vegetables.
