Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 heaping tablespoon garlic scapes, finely diced (1 or two scapes)
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Optional add-ons (any one of these are awesome, but not required)
- Chopped parsley
- Chopped chives
- Chopped basil
Instructions
- Chop the thick end of 1 or 2 garlic scapes – you’ll have to eyeball it since garlic scapes are all different sizes. You’ll need a heaping tablespoon of finely diced scapes so go from there. If you don't have garlic scapes just use regular garlic.
- Cut a small chunk of lemon and juice it.
- You’ll need a glass jar for this – anything on hand will do. To the jar, add olive oil, white wine vinegar, the finely diced garlic scapes, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper and lemon juice. If you are using any optional add-ons like chives, basil or parsley you can add that now. I had some chopped parsley on hand so I used that, but it’s not required.
- Put the lid on the jar and shake until everything is well combined. Give it a taste to see if you want to add more salt and pepper. It will taste good after you make it, but will be even better once it sits overnight.
