Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan see notes
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon anchovy paste see notes
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Cracked pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Add the mayonnaise, Parmesan, lemon juice, olive oil, dijon, anchovy paste, and Worcestershire sauce to a small bowl.
  • Mince the garlic and then sprinkle with a bit of the salt. Use the back of your knife to press the garlic into a paste.
  • Add the garlic to the mayonnaise mixture along with the rest of the salt and the pepper.
  • Whisk the dressing together to combine. Add a bit of water to thin the dressing, if desired. Taste and adjust seasoning to suit your preferences.
  • Serve immediately or store in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Notes

We prefer to use freshly grated Parmesan or the kind from the cheese counter - not the kind in the green can.
You can find anchovy paste in a tube near the canned tuna. If you leave this out, you’ll be missing a lot of flavor but can add in extra Worcestershire + salt to make up for it.
To make a classic Caesar salad, toss romaine, shredded or shaved Parmesan, and keto croutons with this dressing. To make keto croutons, chop a few slices of store-bought or homemade keto bread, toss with melted butter, and season with garlic salt and onion. Toast in a hot pan over medium heat until golden and crispy.
