Caesar Salad
There are a few good approaches to a vegan caesar. Generally garlic and capers are the essential flavors.
Dressings
Tahini-base dressing
1/4 cup drippy tahini (we use Soom tahini)
Juice from ½ large lemon (about 2-3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice)
1 clove garlic, grated or finely minced
1 teaspoon very finely diced capers
2 teaspoons caper brine (from the jar of capers)
1 teaspoon dijon mustard (we love a grainy dijon!)
1-3 tablespoons warm water, to thin out dressing a bit to your liking
Freshly ground salt and black pepper, to taste.
