Ingredients
- 1ounce Parmesan cheese, cut in ½-inch cubes
- 1 large garlic clove, peeled
- 1 large egg yolk*
- 2teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1tablespoon white vinegar (wine or Champagne both work well)
- 1tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 anchovy fillet (or 1–2 teaspoons anchovy paste)
- ½teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1⁄3cup vegetable oil
- 1⁄3cup extra virgin olive oil
Preparation
- 1. Put cheese and garlic into the blender jar. Turn on High for 5 seconds to chop.
- 2. Scrape down the sides of the blender jar and add the yolk, mustard, vinegars, lemon juice, Worcestershire, anchovy, salt and pepper. Blend on Low for about 10 seconds to combine.
- 3. Combine the oils together in a measuring cup with a pour spout. While running the blender on Low, slowly pour the oil through the opening in the lid while using the measuring cup to shield the opening to prevent any splatter.
- 4. Continue running to fully emulsify for a total of 45 seconds.
- 5. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired. If not using immediately, place dressing in a covered, airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature and stir before serving.
- *Raw egg warning: Caution is suggested in consuming raw and lightly cooked eggs due to the slight risk of salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell. For a lower-cholesterol mayonnaise, and to avoid using raw eggs, use cholesterol-free egg substitute for the egg yolk.
