Notes
Storage
Refrigerate for 3-4 days in an airtight container.
I don't recommend freezing this dressing because it can separate or change texture when defrosted.
Cooking Tips
- This dressing tastes better the longer it sits, so I recommend making this ahead of time and refrigerating for a few hours before serving.
- If your dressing thickens in the refrigerator, just stir in a bit of lemon juice or olive oil until you get back to a texture you'd like.
- Whisk everything together until the dressing has a smooth texture, it might take a second for everything to come together.
- For the best flavor, grate the garlic or finely mince it to help it distribute evenly throughout the dressing.
