Make the dressing:

  1. In a blender, combine mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper and blend until smooth.
  2. Slowly add olive and canola oils while blender is running, followed by 1 tablespoon water.
  3. Once emulsified, add lemon juice and blend until combined.

You can’t have a party in the South of France or the Lowcountry without a tomato salad. Store extra dijon vinaigrette in the fridge for up to a month.
