How to Make a Great Ceasar Salad Dressing - A Garlic Lovers Recipe
A Delicious Ceasar Salad Dressing recipe is worth its weight in gold! It's amazing how few restaurants know how to make a great ceasar salad dressing. Ceasar salad dressing is easily the one thing I have been most dissapointed in, when dining out. Especially when you consider this is usually eaten as an appetizer to the main meal, there is nothing worse than having an unappetizing ceasar salad.
The downfalls are many, and include the use of bottled dressing, not enough garlic, too much garlic (yes, its hard to believe but too much garlic can happen), or simply missing other necessary ingredients or combination thereof. The best Ceasar Salad Dressing is a good example of where the greater whole is a sum of its parts. In other words, you can't omit any part (because you don't like the taste - blue cheese, anchoves) or the final product will not be great as it was meant to be.
Believe me, I am not a fan of blue cheese or anchoves by themselves, but to make a delicious ceasar salad dressing, they play a huge part in the final product. So here I give you a garlic lovers ceasar salad. Give it a try, you will absolutely love it! Remember, do not miss a single ingredient, you won't be disappointed! This is how all restaurants should make Ceasar Salad.
For me this is the greatest Ceasar Salad dressing recipe to be found anywhere. Whenever we make this Ceasar Salad dressing, we make enough salad for at least ten people as that's just enough for the four of us. Sometimes this is all we need, who needs supper when the Ceasar Salad is this good!

Delicious Ceasar Salad Dressing Recipe - For Garlic Lovers
This recipe will be sure to have you craving it time after time and is for people who love garlic! It is important to use the ingredients listed to capture the flavours intended.
Start with soaking your romaine lettuce in cold water.
In a blender:
Pour in one cup of olive oil(extra virgin or regular is fine)
6-7 gloves of garlic (peeled)
Coddled egg is optional
1 ½ TBSP of anchovy paste or half can of anchovies
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tsp. of dry mustard
5 ounces of blue cheese
1 cup parmesan cheese
1 TBSP worcheschire sauce
*Salt and pepper optional(there is a fair bit of salt from the anchovy paste; would recommend waiting until after to taste)
Blend these ingredients together until thick and smooth consistency. Chill for one hour before you use to allow the ingredients to meld together for optimal flavour. (If not using the egg, this can be kept in the fridge for one week)
When you are ready to use, spoon mixture over your chilled romaine lettuce and croutons; add a little at a time and toss thoroughly; add additional dressing until all the lettuce has a light coating. Sprinkle with extra parmesan cheese just before you serve and enjoy!
Serves 12-16 people.
This salad is great to serve with a baguette or cheese garlic toast (see below)
Cheesee Garlic Toast
Garlic Spread Mixture
¼ cup olive oil
1/2 cup butter
2 cloves crushed garlic
1/8 Tsp. garlic salt
½ Tsp. parsley flakes
Cream these ingredients together and spread over French bread (or your choice), BOTH SIDES; Set under broiler and lightly brown one side, remove from oven and cover other side with shredded cheddar cheese; set under broiler until cheese bubbles, remove and serve.
If you do not like cheddar cheese, you can add ½ cup of parmesan cheese to the garlic spread mixture cover both sides of the bread and broil both sides - also very good

This Ceasar salad dressing sound really delicious. I remember when I first had a Ceasar salad many years at a fancy restaurant in town, the waiter tossed the salad at our table, and made the Ceasar salad dressing right in front of us! Great recipe for a wonderful salad!
This is a great recipe, though its always to taste as some like a little more of this or a little less of that. But for me this is tops! Thanks for commenting Derdriu and the Vote once more!
Carcro: Thank you for the thoughtful inclusion of Caesar salad dressing and cheesy garlic toast recipes. The dressing recipe is fantastic with or without the egg although I prefer with. They already taste like more!
Voted up, etc.,
Derdriu
Thanks for commenting healthywholefoods. Your mix also sounds very good. Thanks for the info!
Fantastic recipe. I usually just use coconut oil, raw apple cider vinegar and Italian seasoning. Can't wait to try this recipe. Sounds delicious and healthy too.
Thanks oceanssunsets for the great comments, homemade is the best by far!
I love Caesar Salads and garlic, so thank you for this awesome looking recipe! Nothing beats homemade for taste and health both, in my opinion! :)
Thanks for commenting Susan! The great thing about Ceasar salad is you can adjust to taste, so many great ways to prepare it. I'm sure yours is equally great!
I make my Caesar salad dressing almost with the same ingredients that you use except I use Dijon mustard. I've never made mine with blue cheese. Will try that soon. Thanks.
Thanks again stars439! Hope you do get the chance...Have a great day!
Definitely have to make it. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe. God Bless you.
You're most welcome Elena, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
Your dressing looks and sounds delicious. I can't wait to make it!! Thank you for this Hub.
Thanks for reading and the Vote Up! I have to agree, some of those creamy dressings are worth buying, especially for dipping veggies!
This does sound good, homemade is always better. About the only dressing I buy is the buttermilk ranch because I love to dip veggies in it. I should find a homemade recipe for that, never even thought to.
Voted up.

Hi Carco,
I love Casear Salad but never knew how to make the dressing. Thank you.

Thanks SmartyPens, if you get a chance, whip up a batch, its absolutely delish. Thanks for commenting!
This looks delish!
I have to agree, I got so fed up with restaurant Ceasar Salad, I stopped ordering it altogether. You can't beat home made. Thanks Pamela for commenting and voting up...Maybe have your daughter post her recipe too!
This is great. My daughter makes a mean Caesar Salad, too, and to think I've gone almost 55 years before realizing these great concoctions exist. I used to order Caesar Salad in restaurants decades ago and they were nothing special so I quit ordering them for almost a lifetime until our daughter happened to make us one herself. Great hub. Voting up.
Thanks adrienne2 for reading and commenting! This recipe for Ceasar Salad is absolutely the best... I wish the restaurants would serve it this way, lol.

Your welcome amymarie_5! I hope you enjoy it as much as my family does. Thanks for commenting...
That sounds easy to put together. I'm going to have to make this ceaser dressing. Thanks for sharing!
There are so many ways to make Ceasar salad, I have had some really good Ceasar Salads at a few select restaurants, but more bad than good. Your suggestions are also very good. Thanks for reading my hub and commenting!
A lot of ceasar salad recipes will call for you to rub a crushed garlic clove around the bowl before mixing the salad in it - the wood helps absorb and hold the flavor of the garlic, as well as not react with the lemon juice,
Thanks a bunch GIANTONIS! Really appreciate your comments! I'm glad to hear to have tried this recipe, I just love this Ceasar salad...
Hey carcro...I found your recipe and immediately applied it.You turned an everyday salad to taste even better!!
Thanks Debby for reading and commenting. There is nothing better than a delicious Ceasar salad, except of course for yummy Shitake mushrooms.
This looks wonderful. Shall give this a try, but without the Parmesan. Nicely illustrated. Thanks also for visiting my mushroom hub. Debby
I'm so glad you tried it, I can never get enough of this Ceasar salad either. Thanks UniqueVanities for the great comments and vote of approval!
Not even a fan of Ceasar, but showed my mom this, thinking it might be something she would enjoy. I'm sitting at her house now, having my second salad!! Who knew?! Thanks! Voted up, useful, and awesome! :)
Thanks so much JJ. We love our Ceasar Salad, time to pass it around. Lol
Hi, very well done Hub...I am going to vote you up!
Thank you Cloverleaf for reading my hub and the kind remarks! We all love good homemade recipes, great to share!
Carco, what a brilliantly illustrated hub you have put together here! Thanks for sharing your recipe. Bookmarked and Rated up/useful
Cloverleaf
Thanks so much for checking out my hub, please do try the dressing exactly as shown, I love this recipe!
I love Ceasar salad and am always disappointed in bought dressings, so am really keen to try these, great hub and photos, many thanks for sharing.
Thanks for commenting Flora, if you love garlic, you'll love this recipe.
I will have to try this the next time I make a salad. I've always loved Ceasar Salad
Sounds delicious! Thanks for the recipe. Rated up and useful. :)
Thanks Rsusan, It truly is a great recipe. I just can't ever get enough of it. If you get a chance to make it, I'm sure you will enjoy it too.
Great Ceasar salad recipe and yummy pics, carcro! I love croutons and parmesan cheese. Good stuff!
I know what you mean, we actually eat it all up in two sittings. But then we are salad lovers too... I hope you really enjoy this ceasar salad dressing, I just can't get enough. Thanks for commenting!
I know you said that recipe feeds 12-16 people, but I probably could eat that entire bowl of salad in two settings by myself. Okay, I really like salad, and sometimes I eat it by itself for dinner. Thanks for the recipe on how to make a real Caesar salad. I will try it.
Thanks Nell, I have been reading a lot of hubs lately on cooking and recipes, thought I'd share a family secret recipe too...
Hi, Oh how I wish I could prepare food or cook like this! lol wonderful, I have had my share of dodgy restaurants, and believe me when I say they should start from scratch and do it the proper way! great stuff! cheers nell
Hi Victoria, for myself and anyone we have shared this recipe with, there are very few occasions we have ever tasted a comparable Ceasar dressing, especially in a restaurant. Please do try it out and thanks for commenting!
Useful and voted up! I'm always looking for a great Caesar dressing. I love Red Lobster's! I haven't found one comparable. Perhaps I'll try yours. You think it will compare?? thanks!

Thanks for commenting Hazelwood4, I can also remember years ago they used to toss Ceasar salad at the table. They don't do that anymore at least not in any restaurants I've been too. But it is hard to find a good ceasar salad in most restaurants, thanks goodness for home made.
