lemon vinaigrette

A brisk emulsified dressing of olive oil and fresh lemon juice seasoned with salt and black pepper.

About lemon vinaigrette

Lemon vinaigrette is a citrus-based variation of the classic oil-and-acid dressing. This basic version uses olive oil, fresh lemon juice, kosher salt and black pepper.

The flavour is bright and tart, softened by fruity olive oil and sharpened with a clean peppery finish.

It is pale gold and lightly cloudy when emulsified, with a fluid texture that coats salad leaves without becoming creamy.
