Lemon Vinaigrette
2 tablespoons fresh-squeezed lemon juice (approximately 1 small
lemon)*
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard
sea salt and pepper to taste
Whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl, or place in a jar and shake vigorously.
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator.
*To get the most juice: use a room temperature lemon and roll it firmly with your palm on the countertop a few times before cutting it.
Yield: 3/8 cup
Variations:
Lemon Pepper Vinaigrette - add more pepper (about 1/2 teaspoon)
Herbed Lemon Vinaigrette - add 1 teaspoon chopped fresh herbs or 1/4 teaspoon dried herbs
Lemon-Paprika Vinaigrette - add 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
Creamy Lemon Dressing - add plain yogurt
add 1 teaspoon ground flax seed or flax seed oil for the health benefits
Note: Since the amount of juice from lemons varies, I just squeeze the lemon juice into a clear container, then add 2-3 times that amount of oil, add my other ingredients, and whisk together. If the lemon is way too shy on juice, I make up the difference with a little raw apple cider vinegar.
