Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowl
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 glass storage jar

Ingredients

  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
  • pinch of salt
  • ¼ cup lemon juice

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl add all ingredients
  • Using a whisk, begin to beat the mixture together and continue
  • whisking until the mixture turns opaque and thicker in consistency. This ensures that the dressing is emulsified and won't separate.
  • Pour the mixture into a glass jar and store in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Notes

If you don't whisk until the mixture is thick and creamy looking, you have not emulsified the dressing. Emulsification is simply the process of combining these 2 liquids (oil and lemon juice) to become one! It also ensures it won't separate in the fridge once you've made it!
Grab a couple of Weck canning jars or mason jars to make storage super simple. They are my favorite for storing homemade dressings and salsas.
