Ingredients

  • ¾ cup mayonnaise
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons anchovy paste
  • ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 dash salt, to taste

Instructions

  • Whisk all ingredients in a bowl until well combined. Thin with water to reach your desired consistency.

Notes

  • This dressing is thick and clings well when tossed with lettuce. You may want to thin it with a little water if serving on the side. 
  • Use good mayo. The mayo is the creamy base, so use one that tastes good to you.
  • Grate your own Parmesan. For the best flavor and texture, freshly grated cheese works best.
  • Let it sit. The flavors deepen after about an hour in the fridge.
