Caesar Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• Stir the white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, lemon zest, sugar, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl. Gradually whisk in the olive oil to make an emulsion, or thickened vinaigrette mixture. Stir in the garlic. Add the Parmesan cheese just before serving.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, lemon juice, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, red pepper flakes, mustard, and anchovies. Slowly whisk in the oils to emulsify. Stir in the cheese and season with sat and pepper. Refrigerate in a covered container. When ready to use, whisk again.
• To prepare ahead:
• Caesar Vinaigrette will keep up to 10 week, refrigerated, in a covered container.

Steps:

• For the vinaigrette: In a skillet over medium-low heat, toast the pine nuts, stirring occasionally, until golden and fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside. (Alternatively, place the pine nuts on a baking sheet and toast in a 350-degree oven until golden, 6 to 8 minutes.)
• In a blender, combine the mayonnaise, pecorino, toasted pine nuts, lemon juice, Dijon, anchovies, Worcestershire, cayenne and a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until smooth. Set aside.
• For the salad: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch the beans until crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the beans to a serving plate and add the sliced tomatoes and torn basil. Drizzle with the vinaigrette, and sprinkle with some pine nuts and the 2 tablespoons pecorino. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, garlic, mustard, Worcestershire and pepper. Stir in the Parmesan Cheese.
• Preheat the grill over medium-high heat, oil grills surface.
• Cut romaine hearts in half length-wise and leave end in tact so each half holds together.
• Spray Romaine lightly all over with oil spray.
• Grill until grill marks form and the lettuce wilts slightly, about 6 minutes.
• Turn once or twice.
