Lemon Dijon Vinaigrette Recipe
Description
The Lemon Dijon Vinaigrette Recipe combines olive oil with Dijon mustard, fresh lemon juice, and balsamic vinegar to create a balanced and tangy dressing. Garlic cloves add a pungent depth while kosher salt and black pepper season the mix. Whisking these ingredients together produces a smooth emulsion with bright citrus notes and a subtle sweetness from the balsamic vinegar.
This vinaigrette complements green salads, vegetables, or grilled proteins, imparting a fresh and lively flavor with a hint of sharpness from the mustard and garlic. The balance of acidity and oil ensures good coating and flavor distribution.
The dressing can be prepared ahead and stored sealed in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Before use, shake or whisk to recombine the ingredients evenly.
