It’s Good to Know: Green Goddess Dressing

In a review about a new steakhouse here in Delray Beach, the writer said she’d ordered a salad with green goddess dressing.

Huh? Never heard of it.

So I looked it up…

Green goddess dressing first appeared on the dining scene in 1920s San Francisco. The chef, according to FoodReference.com, created the dressing in honor of George Arliss, who was appearing in a play called "The Green Goddess." It’s a blend of mayonnaise, chives, tarragon, parsley, scallions, garlic, and – like Caesar salad – anchovies.
