Lemon Walnut Oil Salad Dressing
Description
Lemon Walnut Oil Salad Dressing combines roasted walnut oil with lemon juice, honey or maple syrup, garlic, and mustard to produce a flavorful dressing with both nutty and citrus notes. The use of Dijon mustard adds a subtle sharpness that balances the sweetness of the honey. The dressing is shaken to emulsify, creating a smooth texture that coats salad ingredients evenly.
The dressing’s bright acidity and gentle sweetness work well with fresh vegetables or grilled proteins, making it a flexible addition to many dishes. It encourages the use of fresh lemon and whole-grain or Dijon mustard to optimize flavor. This dressing is simple to prepare and can be stored in a jar with a lid for easy shaking and reuse.
