LADOLEMONO DRESSING
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (NEVER substitute the juice that comes in a bottle)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 garlic clove, finely minced
- sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Here it is, my secret weapon. Ladolemono, which translates simply to lemony olive oil, is such a versatile concoction. It can go from marinade to salad dressing to delicious dipping sauce in the blink of an eye. I simply LOVE it!!
- Go ahead, make it and get creative. Have fun with it! Pour it over veggies and bake them, or over chicken or lamb. Great over seafood. Perfect for all beginner cooks to have in their cooking repertoire since it can be used over and over to create many fabulous dishes.
- Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl or even in a small jar. Whisk or shake (if using a jar) and serve!
- It's also a delicious dipping sauce for nice crusty warm bread.
- Enjoy!

Made this for todays dinner for salad and let me tell you it is the recipe Ive been looking for!! Thank you for this amazing recipe, looking forward to exploring your recipes!
For Ladolemono Dressing, you say the ratio is half olive oil and half lemon juice, but under the ingredients section you say 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil and 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice. Please clarify for me which is correct?
Thanks,
Mihaly
Thank you for pointing that out, Mihaly! The correct ratio is indeed 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil to 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice, as listed in the ingredients section. The half-and-half ratio I mentioned was more of a general guideline, but the specific proportions for this recipe are 2 parts olive oil to 1 part lemon juice. I hope this helps, and thank you again for catching that! Enjoy your ladolemono!
