Description
Perfectly sweet, tangy, and versatile, honey mustard dressing is a kitchen staple. Use it for salads, dipping, or as a marinade. Let’s make it at home!
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard (or yellow mustard for milder flavor)
- 4 tbsp olive oil (or any neutral oil)
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (optional, for extra tang)
- Pinch of salt and pepper
Instructions
1️⃣ In a mixing bowl, combine honey and mustard. Whisk until smooth.
2️⃣ Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously to create a creamy emulsion.
3️⃣ Add apple cider vinegar (if desired) for extra sharpness. Mix well.
4️⃣ Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the sweetness or tanginess as needed.
5️⃣ Transfer to an airtight jar and refrigerate for up to 1 week.
Notes
1️⃣ Adjust to Taste: Customize the sweetness, tanginess, and consistency by tweaking the honey, mustard, and oil ratios. This ensures your dressing matches your dish perfectly.
2️⃣ Use Quality Ingredients: Opt for raw honey and high-quality olive oil for the best flavor and nutritional benefits. Freshly ground black pepper can also enhance the taste.
3️⃣ Storage Tips: Store the dressing in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to a week. Shake or whisk before using, as natural separation may occur.
