ALL ABOUT THE ANCHOVIES

As you can see, the only oddball ingredient needed is anchovy paste. And it’s usually widely available at most local grocery stores. It may sound like a weird addition but anchovies have such a distinct taste that is hard to replicate. They give the Caesar salad dressing that extra punch of salty flavor. You can also use canned or jarred anchovies if you prefer. But you will need to take the extra step of pureeing them in a food processor before adding them to the dressing.
