- 1 Shallot finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic paste
- 1/2 cup lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 Tablespoon capers smashed
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 Tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley and/or thyme
- 1 cup vegetable oil like sunflower or grapeseed
Add your ingredients to a blender except for the oil and whizz together until you have a smooth consistency.
Keep a cup of ice or cold water nearby to adjust the consistency and so the dressing doesn't overheat and break (separate)
Slowly add the oil to the vortex of the dressing until it begins to close up. At that point add a touch of water or a small ice cube to adjust temp and/or consistency.
Blend until smooth and at the desired consistency.
