Tasting this bold dressing on its own, straight out of the jar, might make your eyes widen. It is very assertive. But don't tone it down thinking there must be an error. The high ratio of potent raw garlic to bright lemon juice to salty anchovy is very much on purpose - once you spoon the dressing over cold braised celery hearts or fennel heads or steamed cauliflower or leafy mustard greens, the ferocity is tamed. If it didn't start so high and assertive, it would become docile rather than perfectly obedient.
