Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole (medium-sized) tangerines
- 0.25 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 small (minced) garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry the tangerines. Using a zester or fine grater, remove about 1 teaspoon of zest from one of the tangerines and set it aside.
Peel both tangerines and place the segments into a blender or food processor.
Add the extra virgin olive oil, honey, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, tangerine zest, salt, and black pepper to the blender.
Blend the mixture on high until smooth and emulsified. If the dressing is too thick, add 1-2 teaspoons of water and blend again until you achieve the desired consistency.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or honey, if necessary.
Transfer the dressing to an airtight container or jar and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve over fresh greens, roasted vegetables, or use as a dip. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
