Lemon Garlic Dressing and the low FODMAP diet
Lemon garlic dressing emulsifies lemon juice, oil, mustard, and garlic for a bright and savory salad topping. Garlic introduces highly concentrated fructans that remain problematic even after emulsification and blending. Commercial jars frequently add wheat thickeners, sugar, or artificial stabilizers to extend shelf life and improve consistency. Those managing IBS should verify that no high-FODMAP additives were introduced during bottling. Substituting with infused oil ensures predictable digestive outcomes.

Group information helps organize reintroduction challenges and possible stacking.
What can change the result?
Substitute fresh garlic with garlic-infused olive oil and blend with plain Dijon mustard and lemon juice. Avoid commercial jars that list garlic extract or onion powder near the top of the ingredient panel to maintain purity. Store in the refrigerator and consume within three days to preserve fresh flavor and prevent oil separation.
