Caesar Salad recipe

The Caesar salad came together in Mexico during Prohibition when Hollywood big wigs wanted to get away from America and indulge in a “spirited” party. The result? A ravaged kitchen and the restaurant Caesar’s Place, with few ingredients left to feed a crowd—and the chef came up with his famous “Caesar” salad.

Ingredients:

1 head romaine lettuce, leaves torn, left whole
1 cup large homemade croutons
¾ cup grated Romano cheese
Dressing:
1 cup mayonnaise
¼ cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
3 cloves garlic
Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

1) In a large bowl, toss together lettuce, croutons, and cheese. Set aside.

2) Combine dressing ingredients in a blender; puree until smooth. Drizzle over salad and toss gently. Serve on large plates.
