 My favorite Caesar Dressing  

Not to many people realize that Caesar Salad was invented by a Mexican Chef working at one of the large hotels.  This recipe is easy to make and it tastes so much better then any bottled dressing.  Try it you will like it!

 

3 eggs
1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
4 tsp. garlic powder
1 1/4 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
4 tbsp. red wine vinegar
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1 cup Parmesan cheese
2 tsp. white pepper

 

Process eggs in food processor for about 3-4 minutes.  Add mustard, garlic powder and Worcestershire.  Process until well blended.  Continue processing and slowly drizzle in oil.  When blended, add vinegar and lemon juice.  Blend thoroughly.  Add cheese and pepper.  Blend thoroughly.

Makes 4 cups dressing.  Can be refrigerated for up to one week. Recipe from Morton's of Chicago restaurant, adapted for non-anchovy fanciers (if you want anchovies, substitute like amounts for the Worcestershire sauce).

And, yes it uses fresh eggs.   If this scares you, substitute some processed eggs.  But the chances of your getting sick from the eggs is about the same as getting hurt in a car accident.
