You can totally stick Caesar dressing in the fridge to keep it fresh. It’s got stuff like eggs and milk, so the fridge stops them from going bad. Put it in a tight container to keep it tasting good. If you made it yourself, try to finish it in about a week to make sure it stays yummy and safe to eat.
How Long Does Homemade Caesar Dressing Last?
Homemade Caesar dressing usually stays good for about 1 to 2 weeks in the fridge. But to be safe, try to use it within a week. If you wait too long, it might not taste as good. So, it’s better to make just enough for what you need or use it up quickly.
