Yield 1 cup

Ingredients

  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ½ - ¾ cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon anchovy paste
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic grated
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Place the egg yolk, dijon mustard, and lemon juice into a bowl and whisk to combine. It should be frothy on the top.
  • Slowly drizzle the olive oil into the bowl while whisking vigorously. It should thicken in consistency.
  • Add the anchovy paste, parmesan cheese, grated garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and cracked black pepper. Whisk to combine. Add salt to taste. Serve and enjoy!

Tips & Notes

  • We used anchovy paste for ease. If you want to use whole anchovy filets, we recommend using 2 and mincing.
  • If you are uncomfortable with consuming egg yolk, you can either skip or substitute ¼ - ⅓ cup of mayonnaise.
  • Store the remaining dressing in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
