In a small mixing bowl or jar with a lid, combine the balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously (if using a bowl) to emulsify the dressing. If using a jar, add the olive oil, secure the lid tightly, and shake vigorously until the ingredients are well combined.

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed; add more salt, pepper, or honey to balance flavors to your liking.

Step 5

Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before each use.
