Ingredients

• 6 cups Extra virgin olive oil
• 2 cups Red wine vinegar
• 1 cup Lemon juice (freshly squeezed preferred)
• 6 tablespoons Garlic (minced)
• 1 cup Dijon mustard
• 1 cup Honey
• 1 cup Dried oregano
• 2 tablespoons Salt
• 1 tablespoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
• 1 cup Feta cheese (crumbled, optional for creamy texture)
• 1 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl or gallon-sized container, combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, and lemon juice. Whisk gently or stir with a large spoon to blend the liquids.

Step 2

Add minced garlic and Dijon mustard to the mixture, whisking until the mustard is fully incorporated.

Step 3

Stir in the honey, ensuring it dissolves completely into the mixture.

Step 4

Sprinkle the dried oregano evenly over the liquid, followed by salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly to distribute the seasoning evenly.

Step 5

If using crumbled feta cheese for a creamier texture, add it at this step and blend using an immersion blender or food processor until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Gradually add the cup of water, whisking continuously. This helps to balance the acidity and adjust the consistency to your liking.

Step 7

Transfer the dressing into a gallon-sized jar or airtight container. Shake or stir before each use as ingredients may naturally separate over time.

Step 8

Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks and enjoy this delicious Greek dressing on salads, roasted vegetables, or as a marinade for chicken or lamb.
