Caesar Salad

Step 1: Prep & start the dressing

  • Salad components

    • romaine lettuce
      , chopped or torn

  • Dressing

    • egg yolks
      1
    • anchovies
      3-4
    • garlic
      1-2 cloves
    • dijon mustard
      1 spoonful15 g
    • lemon juice
      1/2 lemon
    • parmigiano reggiano
      2 spoonfuls15 g

Clean & dry the lettuce you will be using. If you have the time, tear the lettuce into large bite-sized pieces instead of chopping it.

  • Lettuce tears easily along its cell walls, but can bruise and oxidize along cut lines if you use a knife. Tearing also gets you slightly irregular pieces for a more natural texture and eating experience.

Start the pungent base. In a blender or food processor, puree together egg, anchovies, garlic, mustard, lemon juice, and parmesan until smooth.
