Honey Mustard Dressing

The Royal Queen Bee's Kitchen

Honey mustard dressing is a delicious and versatile condiment that combines the sweet and rich flavors of honey with the tanginess of mustard. It can be used as a salad dressing, a dipping sauce for chicken tenders or vegetables, or a marinade for grilled meats. Here's a simple recipe for homemade honey mustard dressing:

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, and apple cider vinegar until well combined.

2. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuing to whisk the mixture. This helps emulsify the dressing and gives it a smooth consistency.

3. Season the dressing with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the sweetness or tanginess by adding more honey or vinegar if desired.

4. Taste the dressing and adjust the flavors according to your preference. You can also add a pinch of garlic powder or a dash of lemon juice for extra flavor.

5. Once the dressing is well-balanced and has a smooth texture, transfer it to a jar or airtight container for storage.

6. Refrigerate the honey mustard dressing for at least 30 minutes before using to allow the flavors to meld.

Serve the honey mustard dressing over your favorite salads, as a dipping sauce, or as a marinade for grilled chicken or pork. Enjoy!
