Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/3 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried Basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried Parsley
  • 1 teaspoon Raw Honey
  • 1 pinch Sea Salt
  • 1 pinch Ground Black Pepper

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Place the extra-virgin olive oil, apple cider vinegar, dried basil, dried oregano, dried parsley, raw honey, sea salt, and ground black pepper into a wide-mouth mason jar.
  2. Step 2: Secure the lid tightly and shake the jar vigorously until all ingredients are well combined and the honey is fully dissolved.

Tips & Variations

  • For a garlicky kick, add fresh minced garlic but store the dressing in the refrigerator to keep it fresh.
  • Adjust the honey amount to taste for a sweeter or tangier dressing.
  • Use fresh herbs if you have them on hand for a brighter flavor, but dry herbs work perfectly well too.

Storage

This dressing can be stored in a cupboard for several weeks thanks to the acidity of the vinegar. If adding fresh garlic or fresh herbs, keep it refrigerated and use within one week. Shake well before each use as ingredients may separate over time.

How to Serve

The dressing shows two slight layers, with a thinner pale yellow layer settled at the bottom and a thicker, more vibrant yellow layer above it. The jar has no lid on, but a silver lid with dressing remnants sits next to it on the wooden table. In the blurred background, there is a white plate with green salad and some colorful ingredients, all set on a white marbled surface. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7
