Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 piece Garlic clove, finely minced
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Water (optional for thinning)
Instructions
In a small bowl or a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the ingredients together briskly until fully emulsified, or shake the jar vigorously if using one.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning as necessary. Add more honey for sweetness, vinegar for tang, or salt and pepper to taste.
If the dressing is too thick, stir in 1–2 tablespoons of water, one at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
Use immediately or store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to one week. Shake or whisk before using if the ingredients separate.
