Lemon Olive Dressing: Mix Equal Parts Lemon Juice and Oil

Before cooking for one

Cooking just for yourself? Start with these amounts from the recipe's one-serving column. Check the full ingredient list below for the remaining ingredients and seasonings.

• Lemon juice: 0.5 household eating spoon
• Olive oil: 0.5 household eating spoon
• Salt: 0.5 pinch

Follow the recipe's preparation and cooking steps after measuring; package size is not the amount to use.

Since each amount is half a household eating spoon, it will spread over a wide area in a large mixing bowl. A small sauce dish or cup makes it easier to mix while checking the amount with a spoon. Strain the lemon juice if it contains seeds. Half a pinch of salt is a household measure that varies with hand size, so do not treat it as a precise weight.

Ingredients for 1 batch of sauce

• Lemon juice: 1/2 household eating spoon
• Olive oil: 1/2 household eating spoon
• Salt: 1/2 pinch

Amounts are based on the ingredient list for 1 serving shown in the app. Household eating spoons and pinches are household measures and have not been converted to exact g or mL amounts. Also check the package size and cup capacity in parentheses.

Instructions

• Step 1. Get a small sauce dish or cup ready. Add the amount of lemon juice specified in the ingredient list and stir in the salt.
• Step 2. Add the olive oil specified in the ingredient list in 2 portions. Stir quickly with a spoon 20 times after each addition.
• Step 3. Drizzle over vegetables just before eating. If the oil separates into a layer again, stir once more before using.

If the Oil Separates Again

First mix the lemon juice and salt, then add the olive oil in two portions. Stir quickly 20 times after each addition. If a layer of oil appears after the dressing sits, mix it again just before drizzling. The important thing is not to pour off only the oil and leave the sour liquid at the bottom.

What to Serve It With and How

Try adding a little at a time to prepared tomatoes or blanched broccoli, tasting as you go. If the vegetables are very wet, the same dressing will seem thinner. Before making more sauce, check that the vegetables are dry, and drizzle it over the portions you plan to eat rather than pouring it all onto one plate. The amount of food is separate from this sauce ingredient list.
