Lemon Salad Dressing
Ingredients
- ¼ c fresh lemon juice, about 1 lemon
- 1 TBSP agave
- 1 TBSP dijon mustard
- ¼ c avocado oil or olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Traditional Method: Put your mixing bowl on a damp paper or cloth towel (to keep it from sliding away).
- Put everything except the oil in the mixing bowl and whisk lightly to disperse the mustard and agave.
- Put the avocado oil in a small carafe. Whisk the lemon mixture briskly, and add the oil in a small stream. This will allow the oil and the acid (lemon juice) to bond so they won't separate on the salad.
- Pour the dressing into the carafe and place on the table with the salad.
- Blender Method: Put the lemon, agave, and mustard in the blender. Blend quickly for 5 seconds. Drizzle the avocado oil in the top opening slowly. Pour the finished dressing into a carafe for serving.
