LEMONY PEA SALAD

Steps:

• Make the dressing: Whisk the mustard, lemon juice, vinegar and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil and vegetable oil until smooth. Season with more salt.

Move the contents of the pan around a bit more while cooking, until the thyme is darker in color and the pan is fragrant, about 5 more minutes.
