You love your plate of Cesar salad with real romaine lettuce, right? So why not dress it with a real authentic Cesar salad dressing.
None of that jarred dressing should do. But rather a deliciously, yummy, velvety smooth and tangy authentic dressing. Made with real lemon juice, garlic cloves, egg yolks and anchovies.
Authentic Cesar Salad Dressing
6 anchovies in oil or 2-3 teaspoons anchovy paste *See Cook’s Note
2 egg yolks *See Cook’s Note
3 garlic cloves
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup parmesan cheese grated
Add the anchovies, egg yolks, garlic and lemon juice to a food processor and pulse until smooth and creamy.
Next add the mustard, olive oil and parmesan cheese. Continue to pulse until creamy smooth.
If not using right away, store in a jar with a tight lid in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
You can use your dressing as a vegetable dip or spread it on your hot pastrami sandwich, grilled cheese sandwich or on your hamburger bun. Or just use it all for your Cesar Salad.
Cook’s Note
You can substitute anchovies for fish sauce, Worcestershire sauce or capers.
Both fish sauce and Worcestershire are made with anchovies.
Keep in mind substituting with capers might not caught give you the same flavor as with anchovies.
You can substitute raw egg yokes for greek yogurt or real mayonnaise.
