Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.25 cup Red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Peel and finely mince the garlic clove.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the mixture together until the salt is completely dissolved and the mustard is well incorporated.
Slowly drizzle the extra virgin olive oil into the vinegar mixture while continuing to whisk vigorously. This process allows the vinaigrette to emulsify.
Once all the olive oil is incorporated, add the lemon juice and whisk again to combine evenly.

Transfer the vinaigrette to a glass jar or bottle with a lid for easy storage.
Shake well before using, and pour over your favorite salad.
