Equipment

Ingredients

  • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoon fresh ginger grated
  • 1 garlic clove minced or finely diced
  • pinch salt
  • pinch black pepper

Instructions

  • Slice off the tough skin of the ginger, then grate.
  • Pour all the liquid ingredients into your bowl or jar, and then add in the ginger, garlic, salt and black pepper. Whisk well to combine. Taste test, and adjust to personal preference with more ginger or vinegar.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of honey to taste. This recipe is slightly more sweet, so if you prefer a sharper taste reduce the quantity a little.
  • If you grate the ginger over the bowl or jar you are using to make the dressing it will 'catch' the juice from the ginger, which is full of flavour!
  • Whisk before use. The garlic and ginger will fall to the bottom of your jar, so whisk it up to make sure you have that flavour!
