Ceasar Salad Dressing

Ceasar Salad Dressing is so easy to make. It literally takes 3 minutes to prepare. Ceasar salad dressing is best tossed with the salad and not poured on top. Croutons are necessary too...for that extra crunch. This recipe will keep for 1 week, covered and chilled. A little goes a long way.

1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, peeled
3 anchovies (I use anchovie paste. It is less 'gross' to me. Ha!)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce
3/4 teaspoons black or white pepper
Salt - taste before adding. Anchovies are salty!
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

In a blender combine all ingredients except olive oil and blend until smooth. With the motor running, add oil slowly in a stream, creating an emulsion.
