Although the original recipe does not contain anchovies, many modern recipes include anchovies as a key ingredient. Our recipe for Caesar salad dressing has anchovy paste, but it's optional. For a vegetarian version of this dressing, you can omit the anchovy paste. What Is the Difference Between Ranch Dressing and Caesar Dressing?
