12 Comments

Your search for the absolute, undisputed, best Caesar salad dressing recipe just came to an end. Congratulations! You found it!


Caesar Salad Dressing Recipe
Makes: 2 cups

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 cloves garlic, finely minced (use a microplane if you have one. If you don’t, why not!?)
  • 1 ½ tsp anchovy paste
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 ½ teaspoons deli mustard (any mustard will work)
  • 2 tbs freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • ⅔ cup freshly grated parmesan (again, use a microplane if you have one. If you still don’t, why not!?)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
DIRECTIONS

  1. In a medium sized bowl, mix together the garlic, anchovy paste, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and lemon juice.
  2. Stir in the mayonnaise.
  3. Stir in the parmesan cheese until everything is completely mixed together.
  4. Stir in the salt and pepper.

NOTES

  • Taste Test: This dressing is pretty solid if you follow the exact recipe. That said, totally feel safe to improvise and add more or less of any ingredient here to your own tastes.

    This stuff is so good! I don’t even bother to toss a salad anymore…I just dip romaine leaves in this dressing like they’re chips! So delicious and pretty keto, too!
