Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Fresh lemon juice
• 1 clove Garlic, finely minced
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, maple syrup, and red wine vinegar. Whisk together until well blended.

Step 2

Add the freshly minced garlic and lemon juice. Continue whisking to incorporate the flavors evenly.

Step 3

Slowly drizzle in the extra-virgin olive oil while whisking constantly to emulsify the dressing.

Step 4

Add the dried oregano and black pepper. Stir to mix thoroughly.

Step 5

Pour in the water, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved. This will help reduce the intensity of the vinegar and mustard while keeping the dressing low in sodium.

Step 6

Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Although we're keeping it low sodium, a pinch of salt can be added as per your dietary preference or consulted with a healthcare professional.

Step 7

Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar or bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before using.
