  • Add extra virgin olive oil, cider vinegar, mustard, hot honey, thyme, garlic, and salt to a jar. Whisk or cover and shake until mixed.

Notes

  1. Hot honey: hot honey is a spicy honey you can find in most grocery stores. You can also substitute regular honey with ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes. For milder flavor, substitute regular honey without the crushed red pepper.
  2. Garlic: substitute ½ teaspoon garlic powder if you don’t have fresh garlic.
  3. Storage: store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Do not freeze.
  4. Gluten-free: make sure the mustard you use is labeled gluten-free.
