  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil A good-quality olive oil makes all the difference.
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar The choice between 1 or 2 tablespoons depends on your preference.
  • 1 tablespoon honey Local raw honey can add depth.
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard Use a high-quality Dijon for a zesty kick.
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt Elevates all the flavors.
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper Freshly cracked enhances taste.

Preparation
  1. Gather your ingredients: olive oil, vinegar, honey, mustard, salt, and pepper.
  2. Add all the ingredients to a jar with a tight-fitting lid.
  3. Shake vigorously for about 30 seconds until well combined.

Store leftovers in a glass jar and label with the date. If your dressing is too thick, thin out with water or more vinegar.
