Steps:

• In a blender, whisk egg white, mustard, lemon juice and red wine vinegar until frothy.

• Mix the two oils together in a small bowl, and let it gradually stream into the blender, continuing to whisk until the dressing has emulsified, and has thickened.
• Turn off the blender at this point, and pour dressing into a large bowl. Stir in the dill and add the salt, pepper and sugar to your liking. You might like yours sweeter or more tart than mine, so I'll leave the amounts up to you.
• If using it on broiled Salmon, you can marinate the fish for 20-30 minutes before broiling or brush it on the fish in the final minutes of grilling.
