Versatile and delicious, this lemon vinaigrette is a favorite among homemade salad dressings. The fresh lemon flavor brightens up simple green salads as a dressing but it's also a lively addition to fresh steamed vegetables, like broccoli, green beans or cauliflower. -Sarah Farmer, Taste of Home Culinary Director

I just saw this recipe on her show, and had to try it out! It is delicious, refreshing, and brightens up any salad. Simple ingredients that you always have on hand. No need to buy premade bottled dressing when you can make it for cheap at home, and tastes much better!!!

This is one of my favorite salad dressings. It works for a simple salad or with crispy Parmesan chicken with a cool salad on top.

Vinaigrettes are all based on a simple formula that uses roughly three parts oil to one part acid, a rule that achieves balance between the vivid sparkle of vinegar or lemon juice and the slick heaviness of olive oil. You can adjust for taste from there, adding a splash of oil if the dressing tastes too acidic, or a splash of acid if it's overwhelmed. Dressing advice: Whisk a lot. Start with vinegar and the flavors you're adding to it: diced shallots, say, or garlic. If there is to be a cheese on the salad, I might add a pinch or two to the dressing early on, to help distribute its flavor. Whisk it around for a while. And then continue to whisk, especially as you add the oil. The best vinaigrettes are emulsified - that is, they are smooth and at least temporarily stable, the disparate ingredients suspended among one another. (The addition to your dressing of already emulsified mixtures - maybe mustard or a dollop of mayonnaise - can help in this regard.)
