EGGLESS CAESAR SALAD DRESSING

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.

EGGLESS CAESAR SALAD

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.

CAESAR MAYONNAISE DRESSING

Steps:

• In a bowl whisk together the garlic paste, the anchovy paste, the lemon juice, the mustard, and the Worcestershire sauce, add the mayonnaise, the Parmesan, and pepper to taste, and whisk the dressing until it is combined well. Toss the dressing with salad greens or serve it as a dip with crudités.

CAESAR SALAD-NO ANCHOVIES, NO EGGS

Steps:

• Set lettuce into a large serving bowl.
• Place dressing ingredients into a blender (yes all at once), put the lid on your blender, and blend until smooth.
• Pour some of the dressing over lettuce, as much or as little as you prefer, and toss well to coat leaves with dressing; I tend to use less and have extra to save for another salad later in the week.
• Set one clean hand over your salad bowl and squeeze the lemon half over it- letting the juice drip through your fingers, but catching the pits (discard pits).
• Grind some black pepper over the salad to taste.
• Add Parmesan cheese and stir to coat.
• Taste for seasonings, adding a little more salt, pepper, or cheese if desired.
• When the seasonings are correct, add the croutons to the top, give a quick stir, and serve immediately.
• This does not keep well- if you need to make in advance, prepare the salad dressing alone and then toss everything together just before serving.

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.
