Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and finely minced garlic. Stir well to mix the ingredients.

Step 2

Add the dijon mustard to the vinegar mixture. This will help emulsify the dressing.

Add the dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and honey to the dressing. Continue to whisk until all the ingredients are well-combined and the dressing has a uniform consistency.

Step 5

Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or honey, if desired.

Step 6

Transfer the dressing to a sealable jar or bottle and store in the refrigerator. Shake well before each use.

Step 7

Use the dressing within two weeks for the best flavor.
