Ingredients

10 servings

2 tsp lemon zest
2/3 cup fresh lemon juice (from at least 3 lemons)
2 small cloves garlic (or 1 large clove)
1 tbsp dijon mustard
1 and 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tsp kosher salt ((use 3/4 teaspoon if you have table salt))
1/4 tsp freshly cracked black pepper (or more to taste)
2 tbsp parmesan cheese (shredded)
3/4 cup LIGHT flavored olive oil (or any vegetable oil)

Instructions

Use a microplane zester to zest 2 teaspoons from a lemon. Add to a blender.
Juice about 3 lemons in a liquid measuring cup until you have 2/3 cup lemon juice. Add juice to the blender.
Add 2 small cloves of garlic. Just add one clove if it's big. You don't want to overdo the garlic.
To the blender, add 1 tablespoon dijon mustard, 1 and 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and at least 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
Add 2 tablespoons shredded parmesan cheese. Technically, this ingredient is optional, but it makes the dressing so creamy! I love it.
Put the lid on and blend until smooth, making sure the garlic gets broken up.
With the blender running, add 3/4 cup light flavored olive oil in a stream through the top cap. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Serve over Lemon Arugula Salad or your favorite salad!
Store in the fridge for 5-7 days. Don't freeze!
Makes 1 and 1/2 cups of dressing.
