This classic homemade Caesar salad dressing will transform your salad into something amazing!  It’s an easy recipe for a traditional creamy dressing flavored with lemon, garlic, anchovies, Worcestershire sauce, and Parmesan cheese.

Ingredients

  • 1 egg yolk (at room temperature)
  • 2/3 cup neutral oil (such as light olive oil)
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (plus extra)
  • 4 anchovy fillets (rinsed and minced)
  • 1 tablespoon garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan
  • 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper (plus more to taste)
  • light sprinkle of salt

Directions

  1. 1

    Separate a room temperature egg, reserving the whites for another use.  Put the egg yolk in a medium bowl.

  2. 2

    Rinse the anchovies, and soak them in water for 15 minutes to remove some of their saltiness and to soften them.

  3. 3

    Add the anchovy paste to the mayo, then pour in vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and most of the lemon juice. Add the Dijon mustard, Parmesan cheese, and the black pepper. Taste and add a dash of salt.
