Method
- In a medium bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, fresh lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, dried oregano, kosher salt, and black pepper. Whisk these ingredients together until well combined.
- While continuously whisking, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. Continue whisking vigorously until the dressing thickens slightly and becomes emulsified, creating a smooth, cohesive vinaigrette.
💡 Tips
- For best results, use a good quality extra virgin olive oil.
- This dressing can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Whisk again before serving.
