Author’s note: This is one of my all-time favorite recipes. It’s the perfect balance between a creamy dressing and a tangy vinaigrette. Feel free to add chopped herbs to this vinaigrette to brighten it up; chives are my favorite addition. Keep any leftovers on hand in a jar in the fridge.
Whisk together vinegar, mustard, lemon juice, buttermilk, and mayonnaise. Stream in olive oil while whisking. Season with salt and pepper.
