About Caesar salad sauce

Caesar salad sauce is a creamy dressing originating from Italian-American cuisine, traditionally crafted to enhance the flavor of a Caesar salad. Its base ingredients typically include egg yolks, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, Parmesan cheese, Dijon mustard, and anchovies, which impart its signature savory and tangy flavor. While packed with bold taste, this dressing can be calorie-dense due to its high fat content from oils and cheese. However, it also provides nutritional benefits such as healthy monounsaturated fats from olive oil, protein from anchovies, and calcium from Parmesan cheese. Anchovies further contribute omega-3 fatty acids, supporting heart health. Modern variations may reduce calories by substituting yogurt or avoiding egg yolks. While delicious, moderation is key due to its potential for high calorie, cholesterol, and sodium levels. The sauce is best enjoyed as part of a balanced meal when paired with fresh greens and lean proteins.
