Caesar dressing now available, and cheap

[starlucia]

I'm pretty sure these weren't on the shelves a few months ago, so: in case anyone's interested, Carrefour is now carrying bottled salad dressings that actually look fairly decent. Caesar, a honey-mustard type, and some other neutral vinaigrette (just happy about the Caesar, since it's a dressing I'll probably never bother making from scratch.) Didn't buy any (had actually gone in there to buy the Carrefour chimichurri that SteveinBsAs raved about ), but the ingredient lists are all-natural and actually of way higher quality than the garbage that passes for "bottled salad dressing" in the States. 8 pesos for a 200 ml bottle.

Don't forget to pickup a bottle of Filippo Berio's Sun Dried Tomato Pesto from Italy.

I think the price is 18 pesos per bottle for the salad dressing.

I will check today when I go shopping...

If it's from "De Mi Campo," it's horrible. Nice bottle, but I threw mine out...

Nah, these were Carrefour house brand, and the price (at least according to the tag) was definitely 8 pesos with some change. But yeah, I'll report back on the quality once I actually buy some

There may be more than one Carrefour Cesar salad dressing. I was referring to the price of a 250cc bottle labeled "selection" Carrefour that actually costs 16,29 pesos (I just returned from the store).

There are at least two versions of their chimichurri sauce. The one I buy is just under 12 pesos for 250g and also bears the label "selection" Carrefour. It is vastly superior to the Carrefour chimichurri that sells for about 8 pesos.

The "selection" Carrefour line (all in tall square bottles) also includes Ranch dressing and tartar sauce!

Buen provecha!

Any suggestions for a good DRY chimichurri mix? I'd like to take some back with me.

I've been using this recipe for Caesar salad dressing for three years, and I love it. It tastes great, and it's easy to make. All of the ingredients are available here in Argentina. Give it a go.
