Gradually add the olive oil while whisking continuously to create an emulsified dressing. Alternatively, if using a jar, close the lid tightly and shake vigorously until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding a pinch more salt or honey for sweetness.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Shake well before each use.
