Homemade Garlicky Caesar Dressing

Ingredients

Ingredients

• 1 unit large egg (room temperature)
• 1 unit garlic (peeled and minced)
• 1 unit fresh lemon juice
• 1 unit fresh lime juice
• 1 tsp white vinegar
• 1 tsp dijon mustard
• 1 cups avocado oil
• 1 to taste salt

Instructions

1. Place the egg, white vinegar, Dijon mustard, avocado oil, and a pinch of salt into a tall, narrow jar or the container provided with your immersion blender in that specific order.
2. Insert the immersion blender all the way to the bottom of the jar, ensuring the head of the blender encases the egg yolk.
3. Turn the blender on high speed and keep it stationary at the bottom for 15–20 seconds until a thick, white emulsion forms.
4. Slowly tilt and gently pull the blender upward through the remaining oil until fully incorporated and smooth.
5. Add the minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, and fresh lime juice to the jar.
6. Pulse or blend briefly to combine the aromatics and citrus into the emulsion.
7. Taste the dressing and adjust the salt as needed.
8. Transfer the dressing to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for 5 to 7 days.

Notes

Using room temperature eggs is crucial for a stable emulsion. If the dressing is too thick, you can thin it out with a teaspoon of warm water at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
