Ingredients

  • 1-2 cloves garlic I use and suggest 2
  • 1 ½ teaspoon anchovy paste or Asian fish sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 3-4 tablespoons lemon juice start with 3
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ cup oil such as canola, vegetable, avocado, or olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • ½ teaspoon salt + ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Place all the ingredients in a mason jar and using an immersion stick blender, just blend the ingredients together until the dressing emulsifies. Alternately, you can add all the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. Taste, and adjust with additional lemon juice, salt, or pepper. If the dressing is too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until it reaches desired consistency.

Notes

  • leftover dressing can be stored in the refrigerator covered for 2-3 days.
  • Please keep in mind that if you’re nursing, pregnant, or feeding this to small children, I suggest substituting the raw egg yolks for sour cream or mayo! Egg yolks can be substituted for an additional 2-3 tablespoons of mayo or sour cream.
