Pucker up! This is a tangy, lemony vinaigrette that's perfect on a simple green salad, drizzled on sliced tomatoes, avocado or tuna, or anything else you can dream up! A little goes a long way, and correct seasoning with salt if you wish, but I find that salt isn't needed with this amount of lemon juice.

Tips:

  • Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor. You can also use bottled lemon juice, but the flavor will not be as bright.
  • If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can use another type of mustard, such as yellow or brown mustard. However, Dijon mustard has a more complex flavor and will produce a better vinaigrette.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. The olive oil is the main ingredient in the vinaigrette, so it's important to use a good one. Look for an olive oil that is extra virgin and has a fruity flavor.
  • Taste the vinaigrette before you serve it. You may need to adjust the seasonings to your liking. Add more lemon juice or mustard if you want a more tart flavor, or add more honey or maple syrup if you want a sweeter flavor.
  • Store the vinaigrette in a jar or container with a tight-fitting lid. The vinaigrette will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

Lemon mustard vinaigrette is a versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads, vegetables, and meats. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your liking. With its bright, tangy flavor, lemon mustard vinaigrette is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
