Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 3 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 6 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Instructions
Peel and finely mince the garlic clove. Alternatively, you can use a garlic press for a smoother texture.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, and apple cider vinegar until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
While continuously whisking, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. This helps emulsify the vinaigrette, creating a creamy and cohesive texture.
Add the minced garlic, salt, and ground black pepper to the bowl. Whisk again to evenly distribute the seasonings.
Taste the vinaigrette and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or honey as needed to suit your preferences.
Pour the vinaigrette into a jar or bottle with a tight-fitting lid for easy storage. Shake well before each use, as separation is natural.
Serve immediately over your favorite salad, or refrigerate for up to one week.
