We love this simple, nourishing, and easy Caesar salad dressing to spice up a quick lunch or add a delicious side to dinner!
This recipe is adapted from one of our absolute FAVORITE cookbooks - Salt Fat Acid Heat. It's so quick and easy to make, especially with our favorite kitchen tool, an immersion blender; these hand blenders make mixing and blending so fast with minimal clean up - we use ours daily!
For this recipe and any salad dressing, be sure to start with a high-quality, organic olive to get healthy fats into your meal! One of our favorites is Carapelli Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil which you can find at most groceries or order online.
And of course what's a Caesar salad dressing without the anchovies? Anchovies are loaded with flavor and offer high-quality protein and fat - don't be intimidated by this pantry staple that offers a lot of nutrition.
This recipe is so easy and delicious - your family will love it!
Maureen's Caesar Salad Dressing
1 cup organic olive oil
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp sea salt
4-5 anchovy fillets or ~1 tsp anchovy paste
1 tsp Dijon mustard
2-3 cloves of garlic
1 whole egg + 1 egg yolk
3 Tbsp shredded parmesan cheese
Optional: 1/4 cup fermented pickle juice or sauerkraut brine
Combine all ingredients in a bowl or glass jar. For quick and easy work to thoroughly mix, we recommend using our favorite kitchen tool - an immersion blender!
Add additional sea salt or anchovies if needed. Fermented pickle juice is another optional ingredient if you want to add a little extra healthy gut goodness.
Toss on fresh salad greens with any topping you like! We love Kalamata olives, grilled chicken, hard-boiled eggs, sourdough croutons, and extra anchovies. Enjoy!
