This dressing makes the best Caesar Salad ever! It is SO good, and easy to whip up, too. The original recipe called for anchovy paste, but I can't get that here, and the thought of dealing with real little anchovies right now was enough to make me want to yak, so I looked online for a substitute to the little guys. I found a few websites saying that capers were a good sub, so I went with that and the results were awesome! So, this dressing is anchovy-free and also free of raw eggs. Perfect! Thanks, Eating, Etc. for posting this recipe in the first place. Everyone loved it so much at dinner last night that it was gone too quickly. I made myself a huge Caesar salad for lunch today and enjoyed every bite. :)
