- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar 20ml, or red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice 20ml
- 1 garlic clove small, minced
- 2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup 20ml
- 4 tablespoon olive oil 80ml
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- cracked pepper
- 1-2 teaspoon hot water
Sit the garlic in acid. Add the vinegar and lemon juice to a small bowl and add the minced garlic. Allow it to sit for a few minutes. When I make this, I prefer letting the minced garlic sit in the acid for a full 3 minutes—it removes the raw bite of garlic.
Add the remaining ingredients, except the hot water.
Whisk. Whisk the ingredients until emulsified.
Add the hot water. Add the hot water (just a teaspoon or two) and give it another quick whisk again before serving.
You can also make your dressing in a jar with a lid, giving it a good shake until it all comes together.
