This salad contains anchovy paste and garlic. Although anchovy paste may seem like something you would never think to buy, I would like to encourage you to experiment and try this, as the anchovy’s only add a subtle salty flavor to the dressing. As well, if you prefer less garlic, simply use one or two small cloves. I, of course, will over do the garlic every time.

Real Caesar Dressing

*I had a Caesar salad in Disney World, and found their presentation interesting. Simply serve whole washed leaves laid out on the plate, dressing on top, eaten with a fork and knife. I found it felt more sophisticated even though I felt like a herbivore haha*

2Egg Yolks

2TBSP Dijon Mustard

2TBSP Anchovy Paste *use less if you wish to do so, no less than 1 TSP though*

4cloves Chopped Garlic

4TBSP Balsamic vinegar

3TSP Lemon Juice

Dash Woscestshire and Hot sauce

2TSP Pepper

1cup Olive oil

1/2cup Parmasan Cheese

*you may need a TBSP of warm water

Whisk together Yolks, anchovy paste, Balsamic, lemon juice, mustard, hot sauce  and pepper until blended well. Continue to whisk while incorporating the oil slowly. If the dressing gets too thick, continue to add more oil until it is thinned out. Add Parmesan and whisk until fully incorporated.

Toss chopped Romain lettuce with sauce in a grocery bag with no holes to make sure that all pieces are coated completely, or serve as full Romain leaves.

This dressing stays healthy because it lacks the heavy milk and mayo products found in the usual grocery store bottle. It tastes very fresh, and very expensive. No one will know its not

Happy 14th day!
