Directions

  1. Puree anchovies, garlic, oil, lemon juice, mayonnaise, mustard and 2 Tbsp. Parmesan in a blender until smooth. Season dressing with salt and pepper. (Or, finely chop anchovies and garlic and whisk together dressing in a medium bowl).
  2. Arrange tomatoes on a large plate; drizzle dressing over. Top with basil and shaved Parmesan and season generously with pepper. Enjoy!

If you are hand whisking, add another 1 Tbsp. mayonnaise for the consistency you need. Tomato slices are better than wedges here; laid flat, they hold the dressing in place.
