Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried basil
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel and finely mince the garlic clove or use a garlic press for a smoother texture.
In a medium-sized bowl or a mason jar with a lid, combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, and lemon juice.
Add the Dijon mustard, minced garlic, oregano, basil, honey, salt, and black pepper to the mixture.
Whisk the ingredients together until fully emulsified, or if using a mason jar, tightly seal the lid and shake vigorously until everything is combined.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more lemon juice for tanginess or a little extra honey for sweetness.
Use immediately on salads or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake or whisk again before using as the ingredients may separate over time.
