Notes about this recipe

  • ldebuys on May 07, 2026

    Quite good! Made this ahead of time for the salad component of some chicken smash tacos.

  • mirjoy on April 18, 2026

    Easy and delicious, I love keeping a jar of this in the fridge

  • averythingcooks on March 22, 2025

    I made the spin-off version using capers but I will try anchovy paste next time. I'm not sure this dressing takes over as house favourite (thank you Bonnie Stern!) but we did agree that it was one of the better ones I've made.

    A good tangy dressing. Will certainly make it again. Bookmarked as a favorite.

  • Madpalice on April 09, 2023

    Loved it and shared it with my Mom and it's now her go to also.

  • mdagl on January 21, 2023

    Not sure what went wrong for us on this one. Felt like it needed more flavor.

  • snoozermoose on May 31, 2022

    I managed to mess this up completely (blame it on being in a rush while cooking), but this was still pretty good! Served it with a rotisserie chicken.

  • dc151 on January 14, 2022

    This was enjoyed by everyone, even the kiddo who doesn't eat salad had a small amount of seconds! I used anchovy paste, so cut it down a great deal; didn't love the flavor of the dressing alone, but worked well mixed in with everything. Added shredded chicken and homemade croutons along with a baguette to make it a meal. Will make it again.

  • PanNan on January 12, 2021

    The dressing comes together quickly with ingredients I typically have on hand. Like other reviewers, I used the bullet blender to whip it up. Everyone loved this salad.

  • AGrayA on January 12, 2020

    I also love this dressing and the ease of prep. I can't think of anything that I would change.

  • jenmacgregor18 on September 06, 2018

    another vote for this dressing. exceptionally quick and very good. And I made it in a bullet blender - so very little clean up too.

  • clcorbi on October 03, 2017

    Agree that this was a bit acidic, but very good and SO fast. I would repeat next time I want caesar salad!

  • Rradishes on June 26, 2017

    Great dressing, tangy, easy to adjust. Will be a staple for us.

  • Yildiz100 on April 25, 2017

    I also enjoyed this but on initial taste-test I thought it was a little too acidic. I dressed the romaine lightly and added extra cheese and then it was just about perfect. I might experiment by reducing the red wine vinegar from 15 to 10 ml next time, but there will definitely be a next time.

  • westminstr on March 08, 2017

    Like others, this is a very good Caesar dressing that comes together very quickly and easily to make a great salad. It makes the perfect amount of dressing for a large salad.

  • Kfaber on February 05, 2017

    This dressing has amazing flavor. Reminds me a little bit of my favorite tableside Caesar salad at Bern's in Tampa. My kids are definitely obsessed with it and ask me to make it often. A definite keeper.

  • Lepa on January 14, 2017

    We liked this salad. I didn't have enough romaine lettuce so I added some raw kale and that was a nice combination.

  • pistachiopeas on September 28, 2016

    Made the dressing from this recipe and it was super quick and delicious due to the use of mayonnaise.
