Ever wonder how to make the ultimate Caesar salad? We've got you covered with a classic recipe that includes chopped romaine, crunchy croutons, shaved Parmesan cheese and a homemade Caesar salad dressing.
Ingredients
Instructions
Place the egg yolks, garlic, lemon juice, vinegar, anchovy paste, mustard, Worcestershire, salt and pepper in a blender. Cover and process until smooth. If desired, add the hot sauce. While processing, gradually add the oil in a steady stream. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Chill until serving. Editor's Tip: We suggest making the Caesar salad dressing a day ahead. The flavors will blend as the dressing sits in the refrigerator.
Place the romaine in a large salad bowl. Drizzle the lettuce with the dressing, and toss to coat. Editor's Tip: To impart a subtle garlickly flavor to the salad, try rubbing the bowl with crushed garlic before adding the lettuce.
Sprinkle the salad with croutons and shaved Parmesan cheese. Editor's Tip: Feel free to add freshly cracked pepper or a squeeze of lemon juice to taste. For restaurant-like appeal, serve the salad on chilled salad plates.
