Great on just about everything, this all-purpose lemon oil sauce should be a staple in your cooking repertoire!
- 1 cup lemon juice – about 4 lemons
- 3 tbsp garlic puree – you can use my garlic confit recipe or fresh minced
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- ¼ tsp dried oregano
- 2 tbsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 2⅓ cups extra virgin olive oil
-
Peel your lemon rind (if using organic lemons) and dehydrate for later!
-
Squeeze your lemons, through a strainer, into a large mixing bowl.
-
Add garlic, mustard, oregano, salt and pepper into the same bowl and give a stir to combine.
-
Now, start drizzling your oil into the mixing bowl and using a whisk blend it into a combined emmulsion. You can also use an immersion blender or food processor. I just like less dish washing!
-
Transfer into a sealable glass containter. Your new lemon oil can keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
-
I use about 1/4 cup for roasting meats or as an overnight marinade. Drizzle onto your roasted veggies or add to your favorite salad dressing or maybe even use as a stand alone salad dressing!
