Caesar Dressing

Cultural Context

Originating in Mexico but popularized in the United States, Caesar Dressing is a staple of the classic Caesar Salad. Traditionally made with simple, high-quality ingredients, it embodies the spirit of Italian cuisine by balancing flavors of umami, acidity, and creaminess. Today, it is enjoyed globally, often adapted with variations like vegan or healthier versions.

Set up food processor with small bowl attachment (or use a bowl with a whisk).

Add Dijon mustard and anchovy paste (1 or 2 anchovies can be used instead).

Add 1 egg yolk to the mixture for emulsification.

5

Process the mixture until combined.

6

Add red wine vinegar and juice of half a lemon.

7

Add a couple dashes of Worcestershire sauce.

8

Start drizzling in oil slowly while the processor is running to begin emulsification.

Once emulsification starts, increase the speed of pouring in the oil, then slow down at the end to retain emulsification.
