  <TabItem value="ingredients" label="Ingredients">
    ```text title="Caesar Salad Dressing"
    2 small garlic cloves, minced
    1 tsp anchovy paste or 2 fillets
    1 tsp dijon mustard
    1 tsp worcestershire sauce
    1 cup mayonnaise (use less for a thinner dressing)
    1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano
    1/4 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
    ```

    <Admonition type="info" title="Anchovy Prep">
      <p>If using anchovy fillets, it's a good idea to smear them into a paste using the side of a knife to break down any bones.</p>

  <TabItem value="instructions" label="Instructions">
    1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the **garlic**, **anchovies**, **lemon juice**, **dijon mustard**, and **worcestershire sauce**.
    2. Add the **mayonnaise**, **parmigiano-reggiano**, **salt**, and **pepper**, and whisk until well combined.
    3. Taste and adjust to your liking.
    
    <Admonition type="info" title="Healthier Tastes Better">
      <p>Using less mayonnaise makes for a thinner dressing, and in my opinion less mayo flavor is better.</p>
