Ingredients

Instructions

  • Finely mince a clove of garlic.
  • Place in a salad dressing jar with the whole grain dijon mustard.
  • Pour the lemon juice into the mixture with kosher salt and black pepper.
  • Whisk to combine all the ingredients.
  • Slowly pour extra-virgin olive oil, whisking as you go to mix.
  • Taste to check the seasoning and it is done.
  • Enjoy it on your favorite salad!

Notes

  • For a little sweetness, you can add a splash of maple syrup.
  • Instead of whisking, you can add everything to a mason jar, tighten the lid, and shake to combine. Then use the same jar to store the vinaigrette. 
  • Freshly minced garlic adds a ton of flavour. Do not swap for garlic powder.
  • To store: Store vinaigrette for up to a week in an airtight container in the fridge.
