4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup vegetable oil
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, tarragon, or chives

  • Add mustard and lemon juice. Pulse ingredients until well combined.
  • With motor running, add oil in a slow, steady stream (mixture should become thick and emulsified). Stir in chopped herbs. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Refrigerate in an airtight container, up to 1 week.
