Ingredients
Scale
- 1 garlic clove (pasted)
- 1 tablespoon whole-grain or dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 lemon (juiced)
- About 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- Good pinch of sea salt
- Freshly ground pepper to taste
Instructions
- First, mince garlic, then using the flat edge of your knife, drag repeatedly across garlic – pressing and dragging across your cutting board. Repeat the process a couple times until garlic becomes a paste. (See video for a visual)
- Then, add garlic to a jar or mixing bowl, with mustard, balsamic, lemon and stir to combine. If whisking, drizzle in olive oil as you whisk (aggressively!) until mixture emulsifies (thickens, lightens in color, or as I like to put it – “becomes one”.
- If using a jar, combine all ingredients and shake well until emulsified. Then, season with a good pinch of sea salt and freshly ground pepper. This dressing is super flavorful – a little goes a long way. Toss with your favorite greens or anywhere else you’d use a vinaigrette. The dressing will stay good in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to a week.
