I’ve always loved a light vinaigrette, especially one that’s a little creamy. And I’ve finally cracked the code – dijon mustard is the secret to this vinaigrette!
Everyone needs a good dressing recipe in their back pocket, and I swear I could put this on everything – from salad to fish to meat to veggies. I’ve made this twice this week already and it’s only Wednesday!
Creamy Vinaigrette Recipe
Yield: Appx 1/4 c. | Time: 5 minutes
Ingredients:
1 large garlic clove, zested (or minced if you don’t own a zester)
Juice of 1/2 a lemon
3 tbsp dijon mustard (the smooth kind, not grainy)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp white wine vinegar
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Combine all ingredients and shake it like a polaroid picture!
You can adjust the ingredients to your liking. If you want a thinner consistency, add water 1/2 tsp at a time.
