Eggless Caesar Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Mash garlic and salt using a large mortar and pestle. Add anchovies, zest, capers, mustard, and pepper; mash to form a paste. Stir in lemon juice. Add oil in a slow, steady stream, working pestle until emulsified; work in cheese. (Or, puree all ingredients except oil and cheese in a blender. Add oil in a slow steady stream, blending until emulsified. Transfer to a bowl; stir in cheese.) Dressing can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 3 days. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a blender, combine the mayonnaise, Worcestershire, mustard, lemon juice, vinegar and garlic and blend until the ingredients are combined. Make sure the garlic is completely blended.
• With the blender still running, slowly add the olive oil. Add the Parmesan cheese and continue to blend. Pulse until the ingredients are combined. Season with salt and pepper.
• The dressing can also be made in a bowl with a whisk. Mince the garlic first before adding it.

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor add the 1 cup of cheese, the lemon juice, 1 garlic clove, the mustard and the anchovies. Turn the machine on and let it run for 15 to 20 seconds. As the machine is running, drizzle in 1/2 to 3/4 cup olive oil. Let the machine run for another 15 seconds after the oil has incorporated. Season, to taste, with salt.
• Coat a large saute pan generously with olive oil. Smash 2 garlic cloves and add them to the pan over medium heat. When the garlic cloves have become golden and are very aromatic remove them and discard, they have fulfilled their garlic destiny. Stir in the bread cubes, season with salt, to taste, and saute them until they have absorbed all of the oil and are crispy, but still slightly pliable.
• Break apart the lettuce leaves. Swish them in cool water, then pat them dry. In a large bowl toss the leaves with the dressing. Arrange the leaves on serving plates and sprinkle with the garlic croutons. Shave some Parmesan over the salads and serve.

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor combine the mustard, Worcestershire, garlic, vinegar, lemon juice and anchovy fillets. Pulse until the garlic and anchovy fillets are well chopped. Scrap the sides of the bowl occasionally to ensure even and uniform blending of the ingredients.
• While running the processor continuously, pour the olive through the cap into the processor bowl in a slow and steady stream, and process to a smooth and creamy texture.
• When all of the oil has been incorporated add the Parmesan cheese with one final spin in the processor. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
