I was looking for a pasta salad dressing that I could use in a very simple pasta salad and this was it, i.e. not using a protein. I wanted to see how to make it, but then use the lemon white balsamic and and lemon infused olive oil that I had. I loved it! I liked using the mascarpone to give it a little creaminess and the Dijon was just the right amount. It’s really delicious. Will make again!
Very good recipe. Made a few hours prior to let flavors blend. Was unable to find peppadewsh so substituted red pepper.
