Sesame Caesar Salad

Name: Sesame Caesar Salad
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 2 oil-packed anchovy fillets, chopped; 1 small garlic clove, chopped; 1 lemon, halved; 3 Tbsp. tahini; 2 tsp. Dijon mustard; 3 Tbsp. grapeseed, sunflower, or vegetable oil; 3 Tbsp. finely grated Parmesan, plus more for serving; Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper; 4 heads of Little Gem lettuce or 2 romaine hearts, trimmed, leaves separated; 1 Asian pear, halved, cored, thinly sliced; 1 tsp. toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

Swapping tahini for the mayonnaise that you typically see in classic Caesar salads keeps things creamy but adds nutty earthiness to the tangy mustard and funk from Parmesan cheese.
