Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cuisine Type: Italian

Ingredients

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon honey
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste

Cooking Instructions

Grab a small bowl – bigger isn’t always better!
Add 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar. No swimming pool dives, just a drizzle.
Mingle in 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard, making sure to hide any evidence of sandwich theft.
Next, 1 teaspoon of honey joins the party. Let’s sweeten the deal!
Whisk these ingredients together like you’re swatting a fly with finesse.
Now, slowly stream in 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil, whisking continuously. Pretend you’re a fancy Michelin star chef – oh wait, you totally are.
Toss in minced garlic. It’s like confetti but stinkier.
Splash some salt and pepper to taste. Go on, be discerning.
Whisk until everything looks like it’s lived harmoniously since kindergarten. Congratulations, you’ve done it!

Suggestions

For a zesty twist, substitute honey with maple syrup. Oh the scandal.
Garnish with some chopped fresh herbs like basil or parsley – make your salad wear a crown.
Feeling nutty? Add some crushed walnuts or almonds for a bit of crunch.
Make sure to use a good quality balsamic vinegar; cheap does not equal cheerful here.
Leftovers? Nah, never heard of them. But seriously, this dressing can chill in the fridge for up to a week.
