There is something special about making your own salad dressing right in your kitchen. This honey dijon recipe is a total classic because it hits that perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors. It takes only a few minutes to whisk together and tastes so much better than anything you can buy in a store.

You can use this dressing on everything from a simple green salad to roasted vegetables. If you find the flavor a little too sharp, just add a tiny extra drizzle of honey to mellow it out. It is a staple in my house and I hope it becomes one in yours too.

Tips

Store this dressing in a glass jar in the refrigerator for up to one week. Give it a good shake or stir before using since the oil might separate slightly when it sits in the cold.
