Ingredients

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 garlic clove, minced
Fine zest of 1 lemon
Juice of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Pinch sea salt
Pinch black pepper
1 small red onion, thinly sliced

In medium mixing bowl, whisk together vinegar, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Once combined, add onion, parsley, and fava beans.
Toss well to coat. Chill until ready to serve.
When making vinaigrettes, combine vinegar and simple ingredients like salt, pepper, and spices first, then whisk in the olive oil.
As well, make the vinaigrette in the bottom of the salad bowl first, then add the other ingredients (beans, greens, etc) and toss to coat with the vinaigrette.
