Notes

Whisk uniformly but vigorously as you slowly add the oil to get the best emulsification.

Don't be alarmed if your vinaigrette solidifies in the refrigerator. It's totally normal. Just take it out and let it warm a bit to thin it out.

For the best flavor, stick with Dijon mustard and fresh lemon juice.
