    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic.
  2. Add Parmesan and Seasoning: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, anchovy paste (if using), salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  3. Optional Creaminess: If you want a creamier texture, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and mix well.
  4. Adjust the Flavor: Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as desired.
  5. Serve: Toss with your favorite salad greens or store in the fridge until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Make Ahead: Caesar dressing can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • Customizing the Flavor: For a richer dressing, add more Parmesan cheese or a splash of cream. You can omit anchovy paste for a vegetarian version or adjust the garlic level to your taste.
  • Serving Suggestions: Toss the dressing with fresh Romaine lettuce, croutons, and more grated Parmesan. It also works great as a dip for veggies or chips.
  • Storage Tips: Store the dressing in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Stir before using, as it may thicken slightly.
