Heating honey changes its flavor, so to savor the delicate floral flavors of my honey, I prefer honey recipes that do not require cooking. Here is one for a honey mustard garlic salad dressing:

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon mustard 
  • 1 tablespoon honey 
  • 4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar 
  • 1 cup olive oil 
  • Garlic cloves, minced

Directions:

Mix mustard, honey and vinegar until fully combined. Slowly pour olive oil into the mixture while stirring. Continue pouring and stirring until the mixture emulsifies, changes texture and becomes uniform in appearance. Add as much minced garlic as you can stand. Taste is best if dressing is left to sit for at least half an hour before use.
