- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a jar or bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and honey until the mixture is well combined and emulsified.
- Adjust Seasoning: Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning as necessary by adding more salt, pepper, or honey according to your preference to achieve the desired balance of flavors.
- Store Properly: Pour the dressing into a jar or airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week. Remember to shake well before each use to remix ingredients.
Notes
- For a completely smooth dressing, you can blend the ingredients instead of whisking.
- Honey is optional and can be omitted for a more tangy and less sweet dressing.
- This dressing pairs wonderfully with classic Greek salad ingredients like tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, olives, and feta cheese.
- Always shake the dressing before serving as the oil and vinegar can separate over time.
- Use extra virgin olive oil for the best flavor and health benefits.
