Directions

At the bottom of a large salad bowl, whisk the vinegar, honey, salt, pepper, and pomegranate molasses, until completely smooth.
Beating continuously, slowly add the oil until you have an even, thick dressing. Taste for sharpness, if it is too sharp, add a little cold water or more oil depending on how you like your dressing.

Chef Tips

For a less sharp dressing use water instead of vinegar in step 1.

I often add water to my dressings to cut down on the oil. If you want your dressing heavier, add an extra spoon of oil instead of the water.
