  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ cup olive oil

  2. Whisk in Olive Oil: Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously to emulsify the dressing into a smooth, cohesive mixture.

  • The dressing can be stored refrigerated for up to one week.
  • Shake or whisk well before using if stored.
