¼ cup mild coarse grain or Creole mustard
¼ cup apple cider vinegar (preferably with the mother)
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
¼ cup honey
2 cloves garlic, minced
Coarsely ground salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
1. In a blender or food processor, combine mustard, apple cider vinegar, honey, and garlic. Blend until smooth.
2. With the blender running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until fully emulsified.
3. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. If you prefer a thicker, creamier dressing, mix in a small amount of mayonnaise or plain Greek yogurt until desired consistency is reached.
5. Transfer to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate before serving.

Adjust sweetness or tanginess by adding more honey or vinegar
