This creamy Parmesan dressing is mild and smooth with a strong Parmesan flavor that is balanced by lemon juice, garlic powder and oregano. The inspiration for this ingredient combination was my lemon oregano sauce, which has a similar flavor profile.
Ingredient notes and substitutions:
This dressing has a very mild flavor. If you prefer it sharper, substitute minced or pressed fresh garlic for the garlic powder. (I recommend to use 1 large garlic clove instead of ½ teaspoon of garlic powder.)
What to use it for:
- This dressing is delicious on green salads because the Parmesan adds not just flavor but also substance.
- You can also use this dressing as an alternative to a traditional Caesar dressing. It has a similar umami flavor but without the strong taste of anchovy.
