Caesar dressing

Anchovy-garlic emulsion

Caesar dressing is a creamy salad dressing made with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, raw egg yolk, and Parmesan cheese.

Traditional recipes include anchovies, though many commercial versions omit them.

The dressing is essential to a Caesar salad, tossed with romaine lettuce and croutons: I'll have the Caesar with extra dressing on the side.
