Equipment

  • Small Bowl
  • Lemon Juicer
  • Small Lidded Jar

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup lemon juice freshly squeeze
  • 1 clove garlic finely grated
  • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper freshly ground
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, garlic, mustard, salt, pepper, honey.
  • Drizzle in the olive oil while whisking and continue to whisk until the dressing is emulsified. Alternatively, combine in a jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake to combine.
  • If your dressing is too tangy, add more olive oil, to taste.
  • Add the thyme, if desired, and season to taste. Store in the fridge for up to one week. The olive oil will solidify a bit in the fridge. To soften, let the dressing sit at room temperature for a few minutes before using.
