In a small bowl or jar, combine the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and honey.

Pour the extra virgin olive oil into the bowl or jar.

Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice, ensuring it is free of seeds.

Add the Dijon mustard, which will give the dressing its characteristic tangy flavor.

Add the honey, which provides a subtle sweetness to balance the acidity of the lemon juice and the sharpness of the mustard.

Using a whisk or a tight-fitting lid, vigorously mix or shake the ingredients together.

Whisking will incorporate the ingredients thoroughly, ensuring a smooth and well-emulsified dressing.

If using a jar, make sure the lid is securely fastened before shaking the jar vigorously for about 30 seconds to a minute.

Once the dressing is well combined and has a smooth, uniform consistency, taste it and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add a pinch of salt or a bit more honey or mustard to suit your preference.

Drizzle your homemade honey mustard dressing over your salad and enjoy the delightful blend of flavors!
