Caesar dressing, the popular drizzled addition to the famous Caesar salad is a creamy dressing classically made from oil, eggs, garlic, lemon, parmesan and anchovies. The color is a pale cream with a smooth and thinly viscous texture with tiny bits of parmesan and herbs. The flavor is bursting with salty hints, subtly sour undertones, and a strong umami quality that is sure to please most any palate.

parmesan cheese

Parmesan, also called Parmigiano-Reggiano is a type of aged cow's milk cheese. Parmigiano-Reggiano must be made in Italy and is the authentic real deal.
