Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Water (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl or a mason jar with a lid, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard.
Add the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the mixture.
If desired, stir in the grated Parmesan cheese for a rich, cheesy flavor profile.
Whisk all the ingredients together vigorously until the dressing is well emulsified, or if using a mason jar, secure the lid and shake well.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning (add more salt, pepper, or honey for sweetness, if needed).
If the dressing is too thick, gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time, to reach your preferred consistency while whisking or shaking between additions.
Serve immediately drizzled over fresh greens, grilled vegetables, or as a dipping sauce for crunchy veggies. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before each use.
