Vegan Caesar Dressing
A healthier and vegan-friendly alternative to traditional Caesar dressing. This recipe omits the egg
yolks and anchovies and achieves creaminess thanks to the soaked cashews, and the umami flavor
thanks to the soy sauce.
Yield: about ¾ cup
INGREDIENTS
½ cup raw cashews, soaked in fresh, cold
water overnight
¼ cup water, plus more as needed
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1½ teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons soy sauce, reduced sodium
1 garlic clove
2 teaspoons capers
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Pinch kosher salt, or more to taste
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the food processor.
2. Drain and rinse cashews. Put all ingredients, except for the olive oil, into the work bowl and process
on Low. While the unit is running, gradually add the oil through the drizzle hole in the food pusher.
Once the oil is fully incorporated, switch to High and allow to process for an additional minute, or
until very smooth.
3. If the dressing is too thick, add additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and continue to process
on High.
4. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding salt if desired.
