Toppings

Method

Preparing the Salad Base

  1. 1

    Wash and dry the lettuce

    Start by washing the iceberg lettuce thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Shake off excess water and pat dry with a clean towel.

  2. 2

    Cut the lettuce into wedges

    Cut the iceberg lettuce into wedges, about 4-6 wedges per head, depending on the size. Arrange the wedges on a large serving platter.

  3. 3

    Prepare the cherry tomatoes

    Wash the cherry tomatoes and slice them in half. Set aside.

Cooking the Bacon

  1. 4

    Cook the bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Flip the slices occasionally for even cooking.

  2. 5

    Crumble the bacon

    Once cooked, remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Allow it to cool, then crumble into small pieces.

Making the Dressing

  1. 6

    Mix the base of the dressing

    In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, minced garlic, anchovy paste, and Worcestershire sauce.

  2. 7

    Season the dressing

    Whisk the mixture until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust the flavors as needed.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 8

    Dress the lettuce

    Drizzle the creamy Caesar dressing generously over the iceberg lettuce wedges.

  2. 9

    Add toppings

    Sprinkle the crumbled bacon and halved cherry tomatoes over the dressed lettuce. Top with shredded Parmesan cheese.

  3. 10

    Serve the salad

    Serve immediately and enjoy your signature wedge salad.
