Caesar Salad
- FOR THE DRESSING:
- 4 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 3 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
- 1 Tablespoon Grainy Dijon Mustard
- 2-1/2 ounces, fluid Red Wine Vinegar
- 1/4 cups Parmesan Cheese
- 6 pieces Flat Anchovies (optional)
- 1 Tablespoon Capers (optional)
- 5 whole Eggs, Boiled 2 1/2 Minutes (use Yolks Only After)
- 8 ounces, fluid Light Olive Oil
- 3 dashes Tabasco
- 2 dashes Salt And Pepper (more Salt If You Don't Use Anchovies)
- _____
- FOR THE SALAD:
- 1 head Romaine Lettuce
- 1 cup Grape Tomatoes, Halved
- 1/4 cups Additional Shaved Or Shredded Parmesan, For Garnish
- 1 cup Croutons (Optional)
- Combine the garlic, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, vinegar, parmesan cheese, anchovies and capers (if using) in your food processor or blender. You can also use a mixer in a pinch. Pulse or blend until smooth. Slowly pour in the oil.
- In a pot of boiling water, gently slide the eggs in one at a time for 2 1/2 minutes on the dot. Run them under cool water instantly and quickly, one at a time using a butter knife, decapitate them. Well, they don't actually have a head, but you get the idea-whack off the top 20% of the egg and pour into your bowl the yolk; discard the rest. It's kind of fun!
- Add in the Tabasco and pulse/blend until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
- Just prior to serving, toss well with the romaine, tomatoes and whatever else you may be using.
- Top with additional Parmesan, croutons and you are good to go.
- To make a parmesan bowl, grab a baking sheet, place a piece of parchment paper on top of it, sprinkle some shredded parmesan cheese in about a 4 to 5-inch circle. Make sure it is even and you have no "holes." Bake at 350 degrees for about 5-6 minutes or until it is melted and edges begin to brown.
- Remove from the oven, let rest for a minute them invert the parchment paper and gently pull it back, place cheese over a small bowl for about 30 minutes to shape and harden. These can be tricky but when they work they are too cute!
- And go ahead, salt a clove or half a clove of garlic and pop one into your mouth. I won't tell!
- Enjoy!
