Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Extra virgin olive oil
• 0.25 cup Red wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 clove Garlic, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
• 2 tablespoons Filtered water

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl or a measuring cup, combine the red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, black pepper, dried oregano, and lemon juice.

Step 2

Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while whisking constantly to create an emulsion. This will help the dressing to blend and not separate.

Step 3

Add the filtered water a tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency. This will help reduce the intensity of the vinegar and oil while maintaining a rich flavor.

Step 4

Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. If you prefer a tangier dressing, add a little more vinegar or lemon juice.

Step 5

Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Shake well before serving to ensure the ingredients are well combined.

Step 6

Store any leftover vinaigrette in the refrigerator for up to one week.
