This was as close to tableside preparation taste as you'll get. Although, I will say that the Worcestershire may be a bit strong for most people's taste. Maybe a little less. 1tsp should suffice.

I was looking for a recipe for Caesar Salad dressing and found this one. The ingredients were consistent with what I was looking for, so I gave it a try. Very good - I made it for a crowd and received lots of compliments. A few things I did differently: First, I made a paste of the crushed garlic and kosher salt by mashing the garlic and salt together with the back of a spoon. Secondly, I omitted the cayenne (not a fan of hot) and anchovies (wasn't sure about the tastes of the crowd, so thought I'd play it safe) and substituted a bit of anchovy paste instead. Will add more next time, because I personally like the anchovy flavor. Thirdly, I put all the ingredients (minus the egg) in a small food processor to blend before whisking it into the egg. Last, I added 2 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese to the dressing. I also substituted shredded parmesan for the grated Parmigiano Reggiano. I like the texture of the shredded cheese with the romaine rather than grated. I used dijon mustard and light olive oil, as suggested. I really enjoyed it and will definitely make again. Thanks Jeff!

Excellent!  I've had Caesar's at some of the finest restaurants (Ruth Chris, Del Frisco's etc...) and this rates right up there with them. I added grilled chicken and it was a nice meal. The amount of lemon juice in this recipe is perfect and adds a nice tartness. I used store bought crutons and it worked this time, but I will be making them next time. Thanks -this will be a keeper.

This recipe was very good, although you may want to use less lemon than suggested, or taste as you go since mine came out a little too lemony. I also added very very finely fresh grated parmesan cheese to the dressing and used and electric mixer to blend it in; this added a little extra flavor and thickened it a bit, for those who like thicker dressings. Overall it was a pretty good recipe and definitely one I will use again.

Excellent recipe. Made it exactly as stated and added grilled chicken to it to make it a main dish salad. I would recommend doubling the dressing for a 4 person serving as this only made 3 servings and had to be stretched.

Best Caesar Salad I've ever made. Only change I made was to saute anchovies and garlic for 2 minutes before adding to dressing.

I used this as I could not find my own dressing recipe (it had been a while since I used it). No need to find my recipe! Yum was the word from my husband and friends. Made a great addition to our new years eve meal. I had to skip the anchovies for our friends, but will make it again and go for it. Thanks for sharing - you really helped me out when I was in a pinch!

This was SO good! I was looking for a great Caesar recipe and this hit the nail on the head. Pungent, garlicky and delicious. I blended the dressing before adding in the egg so that I wouldn't have chunks of anchovy, and I'm glad I did. I used a mix of mustard powder and dijon, as suggested. I STRONGLY reccommend using Reggiano Parmigano... it's quite expensive, but once you taste it, you'll see why. I really enjoyed the homemade croutons as well. So much better than bottled Caesar dressing and boxed croutons!

Good, but not great. Loved the croutons. The dressing was a bit strong, but good. If I make it again I'll use less anchovy.

I'm a big caesar dressing fan, and some how this didn't work out too well for me. Yes, i was a little squeamish about the anchovies, but still, to me it didn't taste right. i did use a little less cayenne, because i was also making this for my toddler who loves salad, but other than that i followed it to a T and to me, it didn't even taste like caeser dressing. I even mixed it with a small bowl of lettuce and still, "ick"!! off to find another recipe.

Yum! This was a very good Caesar salad. I don't like Caesar dressings containing mayonnaise, it adds a strange flavor. This is how Caesar dressing is supposed to taste! Thanks for a great recipe.

This was the best caesar dressing I think I've ever had. I substituted 2 Tablespoons of mayonaise in place of the egg and it turned out really good. I will use this recipe over and over.

I didn't think it tasted like a caesar dressing at all! In fact, I think the coddled egg made me sick and nauseous all night! The croutons were good though. I'll be looking for something else...
