Caesar Dressing

Sauces, Stuffings and Marinades  

Ingredients

1 Egg(s)
1 Garlic cloves
1 Lime juice
1 tsp Mustard powder
� tsp Worcestershire sauce
150 ml Olive oil
40 gm Parmesan cheese
Salt
Black pepper
Anchovy fillets

Method

Finely grate the parmesan cheese if necessary. Put the egg, chopped garlic, lime juice, 2 anchovy fillets, mustard and Worcestershire sauce into a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth. Then pour in the olive oil and oil from the anchovy fillets (mixed together if preferred) in a slow steady stream until the dressing is emulsified and the consistency of pouring cream.

Notes

If the rest of the anchovy fillets are not to be used in the salad with the dressing, make sure not all of the anchovy oil is used to make the dressing as it is needed to preserve the remaining anchovy fillets.
