  • You Need The Original Green Goddess Salad Dressing Recipe - Glen And Friends Old Cookbook Show
    Today Glen cooks an old cookbook recipe for the original Green Goddess Salad dressing - we reference two community cookbook recipes from the late 1930s - early 1940s. One by Duncan Hines, and one by Trader Vic; both of these cookbook writers got the recipe right from the source, the inventor of the Green Goddess Salad Dressing - the Palace Hotel in San Francisco. This recipe is a piece of culinary history.
    Ingredients:
    8-10 anchovy fillets
    1 piece of young onion
    2 sprigs parsley
    1 pinch tarragon leaves
    3 cups mayonaise
    1 tablespoon tarragon vinegar
    1 bunch chives
    Method:
    Chop the first four ingredients very fine, then mix with the mayonnaise and vinegar.
    Chop up the chives and mix in.

      Can confirm! From the website of the current restaurant at the Palace (The Pied Piper):
      GREEN GODDESS DRESSING -
      Chef Philip Roemer invented the dressing in 1923 to honor actor George Arliss, who stayed at the Palace while performing in William Archer’s hit play, “The Green Goddess.” Today we source our ingredients from our rooftop garden at the Palace Hotel.

    I actually gasped when you mentioned the Palace Hotel, because my grandmother and her older sister were both waitresses at the Palace Hotel in the mid to late 1920s.
    I remember green goddess dressing from childhood, although it was from a bottle then. My mother loved it, and I think it was my grandfather's first choice, too.
    I wonder now if my grandmother originally made it from scratch!

    In _This Week Magazine_ food writer Clementine Paddleford's book, "How America Eats," published in 1960 and containing the recipes she collected in traveling the U.S. (like her pal, Duncan Hines) beginning in 1948, the Palace Hotel's GG dressing recipe contains half that amount of anchovy fillets and mayonnaise, about the same amount of onion but a slightly larger amount of parsley, tarragon, and chives for that portion of mayo, and much less tarragon vinegar. Perhaps in the interim someone noticed that it was not green at the ratios in the earlier recipes? Thanks for posting!

It was the color of pistachio ice cream, so probably full of food coloring. It seemed to get phased out with the rise in popularity of ranch dressing. Thank you for sharing this. I’m going to give it a try.

    To be authentic to the era this recipe was invented in, a food processor might seem odd, but I think it would help disperse the herbs into the mayo. I made a variant of this recipe once, but I can't recall the ingredients other that a LOT of the green parts of spring onion. It was a Hulk dressing.

I would love to find one that has that 'classic' taste - the bottled ones on the shelves just have a strange, off-putting element to them; like way too tart, and the flavor profile is wrong. Thx!

    The restaurant I work at had a green goddess sauce on the menu for a while after I started there. It had very little flavour - it just tasted like what it was - mulched parsley, spinach, green onions, and... I think that was basically it? With some lemon (mostly to keep the colour) and olive oil. Just bland greenness, The chef hated it, and everyone there just thought it was crap. As a prep cook I tried multiple minor variations to try and give it some flavour. It was consistently just a nothing sauce.
    Now we make a chimi churi for one or two of the vegan dishes instead. It is soooooo much better. It actually tastes of things.
