Preparation

  • In a medium bowl, whisk the Dijon mustard with the lemon juice and zest, the honey, the grated garlic and the dried oregano until smooth.
  • Pour the olive oil in a thin, steady stream while whisking hard, until the dressing turns pale, glossy and thick enough to coat a spoon. (Or dump everything into a 16 oz / 475 ml Mason jar, screw the lid on and shake for 30 seconds.)
  • Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Taste and adjust: more lemon to sharpen it, more honey to round it off.
  • Use right away, or refrigerate in a sealed jar for up to two weeks.
