This recipe is terrific! I made it in a pinch for my son who can't really have a lot of food additves, but he LOVES honey mustard. This is a real hit! I didn't have rice wine vinegar so I used apple cider vinegar, just a pinch and it was great! Thanks Alton!!!

I also made it and added some tarragon from my herb garden. A new favorite salad dressing.

An excellent alternative salad dressing. So far, I've used it on salads that had chicken or crab cake garnishes. Very easy to whip up at the last moment.

Sweet, tangy.......only takes a bit. I use raw honey made locally and you might adjust the vinegar and dijon according to personal taste. Very quick to make and even the kids like it. Alton does it again!

First off I love Alton Brown. I think he's one of, if not the best chef on the food network.

This is a great dressing for anything from chicken to spinach salads. I would be easy on the vinegar if you are not a fan of that tang you get from it but other wise this is a must try. I have this in my house all the time. I mince a shallot and add it to the dressing for a little extra flavor. I would also try using a good honey for this recipe as it is the main ingredient. There's a bee keeper about a mile from me that makes the best honey so I always use that in my dressing. I have used "premium" honey from the grocery store and that works just fine but stay away from the generic stuff.

If you are trying to watch your calorie intake this is a good dressing to use because a small amount of this dressing goes a long way.

My husband and I love honey mustard but have always had a heck of a time finding one we like. This recipe is just perfect! We love it! Extra bonus points for it being so easy to make. Thanks, Alton!

Made this this afternoon; and although Ialmost doubled the honey and the mustard, the rice vinegar was too overpowering and made the dressing too thin for my taste. But I will try this again, and with some additional adjustments, I think it'll be a winner!

I don't recall how Alton recommended using this dressing on Good Eats, but I have made this a number of times. I use it to drizzle onto pork, top hot dogs, and dip chicken into. Sometimes I'll toss it with a light salad. In each instance, I always make it using the same 5:3 ratio among the honey and mustard. As for the vinegar, I start with one part, taste, and adjust as necessary. It's very important to be familiar with the honey you're using; not all honey is created equally! The best use I've found for this honey mustard is to dip chicken strips and nuggets into.

On a side note, I think Ray in Florida and Barbara in Michigan need to start using reviews for actual reviewing! Giving a recipe a rating can lead to the wrong impression and turn someone off of a great recipe! I highly doubt Alton and the other Food Network stars are reading these reviews anyway. I know there aren't any forums on this website, but please, use this area in the way it was intended.

We love Good Eats and all things Alton Brown. I love honey mustard dressing and my husband loves vinaigrettes and since we're trying to watch our weight we decided to go with a honey mustard vinaigrette. This recipe was much sweeter than we like (and I LIKE sweet dressings so we cut it down to two tablespoons of honey and added 1 tablespoon of mayo to cut some of the acidity and make it creamier. Our recipe made 8 tablespoons and was 221 calories. We used a tablespoon on our dinner salad so it was only 28 calories. The original dressing recipe is 275 calories or 35 calories a tablespoon. Not a big difference but important when counting calories and a big difference in taste.
