Follow The Directions

01

Step

Combine all ingredients—olive oil, Meyer lemon juice, white balsamic vinegar, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, Meyer lemon zest, salt, and pepper—in a small blender or immersion blender cup. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Blend until the vinaigrette is smooth and emulsified, about 30-45 seconds. (1 minute)

03

Step

Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. If a thinner consistency is desired, add a teaspoon of water at a time until the perfect texture is achieved. (2 minutes)

For optimal flavor, use the vinaigrette immediately. However, it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Be sure to shake well before using, as the ingredients may separate.
If Meyer lemons are unavailable, substitute with a blend of regular lemon juice and a touch of mandarin orange juice to mimic the flavor profile.
Experiment with adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a hint of heat.

    This vinaigrette is absolutely divine! The Meyer lemon flavor is so bright and refreshing. I drizzled it over a simple green salad, and it elevated the entire meal.

    I've made this recipe several times, and it's always a hit. The Parmesan cheese adds a lovely savory note that balances the sweetness of the Meyer lemons perfectly.
