Calories: 362kcal
- ¼ cup fresh lemon juice juice of 2 large lemons
- ¾ cup olive oil extra virgin
- 2 teaspoons oregano dried
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ½ teaspoon salt kosher
- ½ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together freshly squeezed lemon juice, dried oregano, minced garlic, kosher salt, and black pepper.
While whisking continuously, slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil until the mixture will emulsify and become viscous.
Don't forget to continue to whisk vigorously.
Adjust seasoning as needed, adding more lemon juice for tanginess or olive oil for a milder flavor.
And serve immediately, with a little shake.
You can also make ladolemono ahead of time and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Shake or whisk before using, as natural separation may occur.
