Notes
👉 Where's the garlic? Traditional Greek Ladolemono doesn't contain any garlic!
Storage:
Store in a well-sealed glass jar in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. If the olive oil solidifies in the fridge, let the dressing sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving. Shake well before use, to get the same velvety texture (the oil and lemon juice will separate with time).Don't miss these recipes:
