Equipment
- A blender or a food processor
- Measuring cups and spoons.
- A whisk (if mixing by hand)
- A storing container, e.g., a mason jar or a bottle.
Ingredients
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning oregano, basil, thyme
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley

Instructions
- Prepare the base: Add the mayonnaise, olive oil, vinegar, and lemon juice in a blender or food processor and mix them until smooth and emulsified.
- Add flavor: Add parmesan, garlic, sugar, Italian seasoning, parsley, salt, and pepper. Blend again until creamy.
- Taste test: Add, remove, or change according to your preference- add more vinegar, more sugar, or more garlic depending on how much you like a punch.
