WHAT IS CAESAR SALAD DRESSING MADE OF?
Most of the ingredients needed for a classic caesar dressing you most likely already have on hand. The salad can be prepared in less than 5-minutes.
- MAYO: Adds richness to the dressing.
- MILK: Not a classic ingredient, but we like how it lightens the dressing.
- LEMON: Gives the dressing its tanginess.
- WORCESTERSHIRE: The secret ingredients for so much flavor.
- DIJON: Removes that mayo taste and adds flavor.
- SEASONING: So the salad isn’t bland.
- GARLIC: We recommend fresh garlic.
- OIL: Along with the mayo, gives it the creaminess.
- PARMESAN CHEESE: Adds the cheesy flavor.
