Notes
- Whisk until fully smooth: Make sure the honey is completely incorporated so the dressing stays creamy and evenly balanced.
- Taste and adjust at the end: Small changes in honey, mustard, or lemon juice can quickly shift the flavor, so adjust gradually.
- Let it rest: Chilling the dressing for at least 30 minutes helps the flavors meld and smooth out.
- Thin if needed: If the dressing thickens too much in the fridge, whisk in a teaspoon or two of water or lemon juice.
- Use room-temperature ingredients: This helps the dressing combine more easily and prevents separation.
