Use a whisk to blend everything together until it forms a smooth mixture.
  2. Continue whisking for about 2-3 minutes until all ingredients are well incorporated and the dressing looks consistent and creamy. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
  3. If you prefer a thinner dressing, gradually add a tablespoon of milk or more lemon juice while whisking until desired consistency is reached.
