Notes
- Chill the dressing before serving! Caesar dressing is best served chilled, as it will have a thicker and more flavorful texture when cold. You can chill the dressing in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving or make the dressing in advance and store it in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Store the dressing properly. Caesar dressing will keep for up to 1 week in the refrigerator, but it should be stored in an airtight container to prevent it from spoiling. You can also freeze the dressing for up to 3 months, but be sure to thaw it in the refrigerator before using it.
