Method

Cut the garlic clove into halves and rub the cut sides over the inner surface of a small bowl. Reserve the garlic.
Whisk the mustard and vinegar together in the bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
Dribble the oil into the bowl in a slow steady stream, whisking constantly, until the dressing is creamy and thickened and all the oil has been incorporated.
