Salad Dressing

• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 2 minutes
• total time: 2 minutes

Ingredients

1 tbsp any vinegar or lemon juice (my favourite is cider vinegar, Note 1)

3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (or other neutral oil)

1/2 tsp Dijon Mustard (or other non spicy smooth mustard)

1/2 tsp EACH salt and pepper

1/2 - 1 small garlic clove* (, pressed through crusher or smashed, Note 2)

1 tsp lemon zest*

1/4 tsp sugar (Note 3)

1 tsp honey (Note 3)

Finely chopped fresh herbs

1/2 tsp dried herbs*

Pinch of red pepper flakes

Directions

Place Dressing ingredients and Optional Flavourings in a jar and shake well until mustard dissolves.

Makes enough for a big leafy salad for 4 people (4 big handfuls of lettuce), or garden salad.

Storage: Excluding garlic and fresh herbs, Dressing will keep for weeks in the fridge - just give it a good shake before using. Big batch - click servings and slide.

Use to dress any fresh salad (make sure leaves are dry otherwise it won't stick) or steamed, boiled or roasted vegetables (douse while hot so it absorbs!). Drizzle and toss well just before serving.
