Caesar salad
Monday, May 2nd, 2005This one was e-mailed to me from mom (I added a few ingredients and changed the preparation) By the way, I love Central Market’s Caesar dressing:
This is a good recipe. Try it!! It may be just as good as Central Market’s.
-
1/4 cup kalamata olives
5 cloves garlic
4 anchovy fillets
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 large egg yolk
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 heads romaine lettuce
Croutons
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan or Romano cheese or
2 1/2 ounces shaved with a vegetable peeler plus more for garnish
1. Place garlic, anchovy fillets, olives and salt in a blender; add pepper, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and egg yolk. Slowly drizzle in olive oil while mixing.
2. Cut or tear the romaine leaves into bite size pieces. Add the croutons, romaine, and cheese to the bowl and toss well. Garnish with extra grated cheese if desired. Serve immediately.
