Keto Caesar Dressing
Description
The preparation begins with soft-boiling an egg for about six and a half minutes, then peeling it once cooled. The egg is blended with anchovies, garlic, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice and zest, and finely grated parmesan cheese. Olive oil is slowly drizzled in while blending to emulsify the ingredients into a velvety dressing.
This dressing is rich and tangy with depth from anchovies and parmesan, and brightness from lemon. It pairs well with Caesar salads but can also serve as a dip for vegetables or a flavorful spread for burgers and sandwiches.
It makes approximately 200ml and can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to one week. The recipe notes options to adjust serving size and add fresh chives for garnish.
