This easy honey mustard dressing is sweet, tangy, and creamy - perfect for salads, dipping, or drizzling over roast vegetables. Made in 5 minutes with store cupboard staples!

The original recipe appeared in the June/July 2022 easyFood magazine in a 2 page spread of 6 DIY dressings.   All of the dressings really appealed...this is the second one I've made.

It's a perfect dressing to enjoy with a chicken salad, as a dressing for a warm potato salad, or to dress a green salad or vegetables alongside a roast ham.

The balance of honey, mustard and acidity in the dressing is perfect!

Tips

  • Mustards - use Dijon for a smooth sharp flavour, wholegrain for texture or yellow mustard for a more American-style version.
  • Optional add-ins - try adding some Greek yogurt, sour cream or mayo for a creamy version, or a pinch of cayenne pepper, paprika or chilli flakes, or a dash of hot sauce for a spicy kick.
  • The recipe makes quite a large quantity of honey mustard dressing, but it's easily reduced if you want to make less.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it keep? 

It keeps for up to 2 weeks in the fridge in a sealed jar, bottle or airtight container. 

Is this dressing vegan? 

It's not vegan due to honey, but you can substitute with maple syrup or agave to make it vegan-friendly. 

Can I use it as a marinade? 

Yes - it's great for chicken, pork, or tofu. Marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
