Homemade Creamy Caesar Dressing #recipe #easyrecipe

Caesar salad was one of my favourite salads growing up.

It didn’t fit our kids’ food allergies so it was something I had only when we’d eat out. Then I started having issues and found out I have MCAS.

With getting it at restaurants no longer an option Rob and I set out to make it at home.

Our version is not only vegan, but also dairy free, gluten free, and free from the top 9 food allergens – with a mustard free suggestion.

1 Cup Vegan Mayo, egg and soy free
3-4 Cloves Garlic, pressed or minced
2 Tablespoons Dairy Free Parmesan style cheese, shredded
1 Tablespoon Dijon Mustard (see notes for mustard substitute)
½ Teaspoon Ground Pepper
½ teaspoon Caper Juice (see notes)
½ teaspoon Lemon Juice, fresh
¼-½ teaspoon Coconut Aminos

Instructions

In a medium bowl mix all the ingredients together well. Taste the dressing to see if it needs more lemon juice, mayo, or mustard. The dressing can be chilled in the fridge overnight to get the best caesar salad dressing flavour. The dressing can be stored for up to 3 days in an airtight container.

Notes

For a sweeter milder garlic flavour, swap out the 4 cloves of fresh garlic for a whole head of oven roasted garlic.

For the best garlic flavour, squash your garlic before mincing to draw the oils out of it. Adding it first to the bowl and squishing it with a fork to the side of the bowl can also get the most flavour and oils incorporated into the dressing as possible.

Mustard Substitute: replace the mustard with 1-2 teaspoons of creamed horseradish and ⅛-¼ teaspoon dried turmeric (finely ground). Use horseradish that is mixed so finely it becomes creamed. Do not use creamy horseradish sauce made with dairy or horseradish sauce made with eggs. Read the ingredients carefully.

Caper juice is the pickling liquid capers are packed in. It is vinegar based. White wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar can be used instead, if it is safe for you.

We have a top 9 free Worcestershire sauce on our recipes, if you’d like to add extra flavour instead of plain coconut aminos!

Today we are making a creamy Caesar salad dressing. It is one of my favorite salad dressings and I have missed it dearly since we have been on this allergy adventure. It starts off with a vegan mayonnaise. Then we add a bunch of garlic into it. So much garlic you are going to hope that everybody you are with has some. Then we put in a bit of dairyfree parmesan, some dijon mustard, pepper, a little bit of lemon juice, caper juice, and some coconut aminos. Now, the caper juice is just the liquid that comes in the jar with capers. You could also put in some minced up capers as well. We put a lot of garlic in this because I like my Caesar salad dressing super garlicky and we use this on wraps as well as Caesar salads. It is phenomenal. And another easy allergyfriendly recipe.
