Creamy Caesar Dressing
Did you know that the original Caesar salad was invented at a restaurant in Tijuana, Mexico? And that anchovies were not an original ingredient? Here's my version of this now world-famous dressing.
What You'll Need
- 1 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 3/4 cup half-and-half or milk
- 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves fresh garlic
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 3 anchovy fillets or 1/8 teaspoon salt
What to Do
- Combine all the ingredients in a blender jar and blend on medium-high speed, scraping sides occasionally, until smooth and creamy. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
Makes about 21/2 cups.
Notes
Just before serving, toss gently with cut romaine lettuce and top with croutons. Do not toss with the greens until ready to serve.
