• Let’s get this delicious dressing going! Here’s how you can make it.

Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients

• Start by gathering all your ingredients on the counter. Trust me, this step is crucial. No one wants to be halfway through and realize they forgot the honey!

Step 2: Measure the Dry Ingredients

• Take out a mixing bowl, and add in the garlic granules, onion granules, ground ginger, and smoked paprika. Use a whisk to combine them, making sure they blend well. This step is where the magic starts to happen! The scents wafting from the bowl are phenomenal.

Step 3: Combine with Dijon Mustard

• Next, add in the Dijon mustard. This gives the dressing a sharp tang that balances the sweetness of the apple juice and honey. Stir well until everything is combined. You want to see a lovely, unified mixture.

Step 4: Add the Olive Oil

• Now it’s time for the extra virgin olive oil. Slowly pour it into the mixture while whisking constantly. This emulsification process is essential. The smoothness of the oil adds richness, and whisking incorporates air, helping it all blend together.

Step 5: Incorporate Honey and Apple Juice

• After the oil is well mixed in, add the raw honey and fresh apple juice. Again, whisk away!
• This is where the dressing begins to take on that irresistible, glossy texture. The sweetness from the honey and the fresh apple juice is a game-changer.

Step 6: Finish with Vinegar and Salt

• Finally, mix in the white balsamic vinegar and sea salt. Whisk everything together until the dressing is well combined and smooth.
• Don’t skip the taste test—this is where it truly shines. Adjust the seasoning if needed, and feel free to add a bit more honey if you’re feeling adventurous!

Step 7: Store Properly

• Transfer your dressing into an airtight container. It’s best enjoyed fresh, but it can also keep in the refrigerator for up to a week. Just shake it up before using again.
