Sometimes it is enough to change only one detail so that a familiar dish plays in a completely new way. This is exactly how this simple dressing works. It is light, aromatic, has a pleasant sourness and perfectly emphasizes the taste of vegetables. No wonder similar sauces are often served in good restaurants.

What you will need:

• 3 tbsp olive or sunflower oil; • 1 tbsp lemon juice; • 1 tsp Dijon or ordinary mustard; • 1 tsp honey; • a pinch of salt; • a pinch of ground black pepper; • optionally — dried oregano, basil or a clove of crushed garlic.

How to prepare:

In a small jar or bowl mix all the ingredients to a homogeneous consistency. The most convenient way is simply to close the jar with a lid and shake well for a few seconds.

After that immediately pour over the salad or let the dressing infuse for 10–15 minutes — the aroma will become even richer.

It tastes wonderful with tomatoes, cucumbers, salad leaves, cheese, chicken, eggs and even roasted vegetables. The salad turns out juicy, fresh and without the feeling of heaviness that mayonnaise often leaves.

Save this recipe for yourself — it is quite possible that after the first tasting exactly this dressing will become your favourite.
