Recipe for Simple Caesar Dressing that will take you back in time.....

For a true to the word Classic Caesar Salad lover there is nothing better than the old Caesar Cart pushed table side and brought together in a old wooden bowl beginning with a fresh egg yolk evolving to the plate which presented crisp romaine tossed about with the fresh lemony, anchovy laden emulsification perfectly coating each bite of Romaine as the flavors bursted across the palette finishing with the strength of freshly shaved Parmesan.
If you are seeking what has been presented then you will have to go about making it from scratch so to speak, if you will settle for a simple Caesar Dressing that if you close your eyes and dream a little it to will take it all back to that fresh egg yolk cracked and whisked away in the big wooden bowl. Seriously this is too good to be simple, hmmm but aren't most of the simple things in this world the best. OK no philosification today just a good simple Caesar Dressing recipe.

Ingredients: makes 4 servings

11/2  tbsp Mayonnaise
1 tsp Anchovy Paste (filet's work well to and can be use to garnish the finished salad)
2 tsp white balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Water
2 tsp fresh lemon juice (more or less)
Cracked Black Pepper to taste
fresh shaved Parmesan ( as garnish for salad)

Combine all mentioned ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until well incorporated, that is it, toss ripped Romaine Heats and create a Caesar experience that you will not forget.
If you are pouring a white keep it simple as well, a 2010 Kendall Jackson Reserve Chardonnay or a Red such as a 2009 Hahn Pinot.
I know I did not walk putting the salad together today, it is pretty easy to figure with out instruction. Should you wish instruction just Gmail me and I will be happy to explain how to make the perfect Caesar Salad using this simple dressing. Next up another simple one for a Bruchetta filled with garlic and something secret to really bring on intense flavors.
