This four-ingredient lemon dressing is a versatile dressing for any salad, made with lemon juice, olive oil, coarse salt, and sweet paprika. The ideal ratio of juice to oil is one to one. Simply pour everything into a jar with a lid and shake well, then pour it straight over your salad or chill the dressing for a few minutes. It keeps in the refrigerator for about four days.

Tip: Before squeezing the lemon, roll it firmly under your palm on a cutting board to release more juice. Olive oil thickens in the refrigerator, so let the dressing stand at room temperature for a little while and shake again.
