Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.25 cup Red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove Fresh garlic, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl or a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the red wine vinegar, honey, tomato paste, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic. Whisk or shake until fully combined.
Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuously whisking (or add all ingredients to the jar and shake vigorously). This will help emulsify the dressing, creating a smooth texture.
Stir in the dried oregano, dried basil, salt, black pepper, and Parmesan cheese. Mix until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the water, one tablespoon at a time, to thin the dressing to your desired consistency. Shake or whisk to combine after each addition.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning as needed with additional salt, pepper, or honey for sweetness.
Serve immediately over your favorite salad, or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate. Shake well before serving if stored, as separation may occur.
