Ingredients

• 1/4 cup white vinegar
• 1/4 cup lemon juice

• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (this really doesn’t add much heat; it’s better with it!)
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

• 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese (either fresh or from a can)
• 3/4 tsp. Italian seasoning (add more if needed)

Preparation

Step 1

Place vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, mustard, salt, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and garlic in the jar of a blender and blend until smooth.


While the blender is running, add the oil in a steady stream.

Remove the blender jar from the blender and mix in the cheese and Italian seasoning by hand.

Transfer to a storage or serving container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
