Sweet and Sour Mustard Dressing

This sweet and sour mustard dressing is a versatile condiment that can be used on salads, roasted vegetables, or as a dipping sauce. It's made with a base of avocado oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard, and it gets its sweetness from the honey and its tanginess from the vinegar. The cilantro adds a fresh, herbaceous flavor, and the salt and pepper round out the flavors. This dressing is easy to make and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

The inspiration for this dressing came from a trip to a Vietnamese restaurant. I was particularly impressed by the sweet and sour dipping sauce that was served with the spring rolls. I wanted to create a dressing that had a similar flavor profile, but that would be more versatile. I experimented with different combinations of ingredients, and I finally settled on this recipe. I've been using it on salads, roasted vegetables, and as a dipping sauce for chicken and fish. It's always a hit, and I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as I do.
