Lemon Garlic Salad Dressing (With Variations) image

See how easy it is to whip up this simple lemon-garlic salad dressing and tailor it to your tastes-you'll soon ditch all those bottles.

Provided by Molly Watson

Categories     Salad     Dinner     Lunch     Side Dish     Ingredient     Sauce

Time 10m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 small clove garlic
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Optional: 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest (finely grated)
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt (plus more to taste)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground; plus more to taste)
1/4 teaspoon dry ground mustard
2 to 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil ​(or lemon-infused olive oil )
Salad greens

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Peel and mince the garlic (you can use a garlic press if you like; presses tend to bring out the bitterness in garlic, but some people don't seem to notice it).
  • If you're making a salad in the next few hours, put the garlic in a large salad bowl. (If you're making the dressing ahead of time, put the garlic in a sealable jar.)
  • Add the lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, pepper, and mustard. Whisk to combine everything (or seal and shake the jar).
  • Whisk in the olive oil (or, again, seal the jar and shake it vigorously).
  • Taste and adjust salt and pepper to taste. If the dressing is too zingy for you, feel free to add more olive oil to soften the flavor. A bit more salt will help temper​ the acid kick, too.
  • Use the vinaigrette-style dressing immediately. If you've made the dressing in the salad bowl, just add the greens to that big bowl and toss.
