I am working from Texas through the New Year to be with family over the holidays. That, of course, always includes a fair bit of cooking with my mama, the woman ultimately responsible for my appreciation of food. Now as a reminder, mom isnt the biggest fish eater in America. She lived in Nebraska until her late 30s, so youve got to cut her some slack. But shes come a loooong way, as exemplified by the fact that last night I discovered she keeps anchovy paste in her pantry.The reason I was looking for anchovy paste is that I wanted to make a homemade Caesar salad dressing to go with her homemade pizza.Both turned out wonderfully.Im pretty sure this was my first time making Caesar salad dressing, and as is almost always the case with homemade versions of usually-store-bought products, it was easier than I thought and tasted much better.
