How to Make Creamy Lovage And Mustard Salad Dressing

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lovage, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper until smooth and slightly thickened.
  2. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more honey for sweetness, lemon juice for tartness, salt for salinity, or pepper for spice.
  3. Serve immediately over your favorite mixed greens, such as mache or lamb's lettuce, and add sliced tomatoes for a burst of freshness.
  4. This dressing also pairs wonderfully with lightly cooked and cooled spring vegetables like peas, baby carrots, new potatoes, and young broad beans.
  5. Store leftover dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
