Honey Mustard Dressing Recipe
Description
The dressing combines smooth mayonnaise or Greek yogurt as a creamy base with the sharpness of yellow or Dijon mustard and the texture of whole grain mustard. Honey adds sweetness to balance the acidity of lemon juice. Ground cumin introduces a warm, earthy note, while cayenne pepper provides a mild heat to lift the flavor without overpowering.
Mixing the ingredients by shaking in a closed jar ensures even emulsification and convenience for storage or quick use. It serves well as a versatile condiment that can enhance green salads, roasted vegetables, or act as a flavorful dip for snacks.
Refrigerate leftover dressing to preserve freshness and maintain texture. The recipe's flexibility allows substituting Greek yogurt for mayonnaise for a lighter, tangier option, adapting it to different dietary preferences.
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
- 1/4 /4 cup prepared mustard yellow or Dijon
- 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard optional
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/2 /2 teaspoon cumin ground
- 1/4 /4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to Mason jar, fit with tight top and shake until well combined. Alternately, you may add all ingredients to a bowl and whisk until smooth. Serve as a dressing or dip. Refrigerate unused dressing.
Notes
- Mayonnaise can be replaced with non-fat Greek yogurt for a lighter, tangier dressing.
- Shake the dressing ingredients in a sealed jar for easy mixing and storage.
- Refrigerate unused dressing and use within a few days for best taste and texture.
