Caesar salad dressing fail

[911 Rod]

Okay my fellow birds, let’s see if the brain trust has a solution for this.
Making Caesar dressing, it separates while pouring the oil.
Wtf? Does it sometimes. Toss it. Do again and it’s fine. I used to do it by hand and now the better half is having the same problem using a silver bullet mixer.
Is it just us?

Thanks for the recipe.
No problems having it separate while adding the oil?

[RWebb]

just whip the oil back into the emulsion

[shadowjack1]

pour your oil in a pencil thin line and whisk quickly to avoid separation .

Not another oil thread

It comes from a green jar doesn’t it?

I'm no expert, but I think what you want to do is emulsify.
Maybe some tips that can help here.

I just let Ken make mine.

You haven't really experienced a Caesar Salad till you have had it served to you In Baja were it was invented. (Tijuana to be specific)
The El Rey Sol in Ensenada has been serving them table side for 50 years .
Suggest a "Mexican Coffee" for dessert.

They also make it tableside at The Sage Room at Harvey's Lake Tahoe. Great with the Chateaubriand for two.

Doesn't work. Once it separates it's game over.
