Caesar salad dressing is a creamy condiment originating from Italian-Mexican cuisine, created by Caesar Cardini in the 1920s. It traditionally combines olive oil, raw egg yolks, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, Dijon mustard, anchovies, and Parmesan cheese. Known for its bold, savory flavor, it enhances the taste of crisp romaine lettuce and croutons. While olive oil and lemon juice provide healthy fats and vitamin C, the dressing is often high in calories, sodium, and saturated fats—especially when prepared with cheese and mayonnaise. Modern variations may reduce unhealthy components or eliminate raw eggs for safety. A balanced portion can add depth to salads while contributing a moderate amount of essential nutrients. However, consuming it in excess may overwhelm its health benefits.
