- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon White wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Peel and finely mince the garlic clove or use a garlic press to crush it into a paste-like consistency.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the mayonnaise, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, olive oil, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and the minced garlic.
Season the mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Whisk everything together vigorously until the ingredients form a smooth and creamy dressing.
