TANGY LEMON-MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE



Tangy Lemon-Mustard Vinaigrette image

Pucker up! This is a tangy, lemony vinaigrette that's perfect on a simple green salad, drizzled on sliced tomatoes, avocado or tuna, or anything else you can dream up! A little goes a long way, and correct seasoning with salt if you wish, but I find that salt isn't needed with this amount of lemon juice.

Categories     Component

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 small garlic clove (grated)
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon sea salt (more to taste)
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
1/4 to 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon fresh or dried thyme (optional)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, garlic, mustard, salt, pepper, and honey, if using.
  • Drizzle in the olive oil while whisking and continue to whisk until the dressing is emulsified. Alternatively, combine everything in a jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake to combine.
  • If your dressing is too tangy, add more olive oil, to taste.

MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE

A generous spoonful of Dijon mustard makes this vinaigrette creamy and tart. Use the dressing with sturdy salad greens like romaine or with softer lettuces like Bibb lettuce or oak leaf. The dressing is too strong to work with baby salad greens or mesclun. It's also great with cooked vegetables like beets or broccoli and with grain salads.
