Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Juicing the Lemons

    Begin by juicing the fresh lemons until you have one cup of lemon juice. Strain the juice to remove any seeds or pulp if desired.

  2. 2

    Mixing the Ingredients

    In a medium mixing bowl, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.

  3. 3

    Emulsifying the Vinaigrette

    Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuously whisking the mixture to emulsify the vinaigrette. This helps to combine the oil and vinegar for a smooth dressing.

  4. 4

    Adjusting Seasoning

    Taste the vinaigrette and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You can add more salt, pepper, or honey for sweetness according to your preference.

  5. 5

    Storing the Vinaigrette

    Transfer the vinaigrette to a clean glass jar or bottle. Seal tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to a week. Make sure to shake well before using.
