Ingredients
Vinaigrette Ingredients
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic (very finely minced, about 1 clove)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill (finely chopped)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
Instructions
- Chop: Finely mince the garlic clove and chop the fresh dill finely to release their flavors fully.
- Mix: In a jar or bowl, combine the minced garlic, chopped dill, honey, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and salt. Stir or shake the mixture vigorously to begin blending the ingredients.
- Emulsify: Slowly add the olive oil while whisking continuously if using a bowl, or add it to the jar then close and shake vigorously to create a smooth emulsified vinaigrette.
- Taste and Adjust: Taste the vinaigrette and add a pinch more salt if needed to balance the flavors perfectly.
Notes
- For a smoother texture, you can whisk the vinaigrette with a fork or small whisk until fully emulsified.
- Use fresh lemon juice for best flavor; bottled lemon juice might alter the taste slightly.
- This vinaigrette can be stored in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Shake well before each use.
- Adjust the honey amount if you prefer a less sweet or more tangy dressing.
