Caesar Dressing Ingredients

Method

Preparing the Salad

  1. 1

    Wash and Chop Romaine

    Thoroughly wash the romaine lettuce under cold water. Remove any wilted leaves and chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Prepare Croutons

    If using store-bought croutons, measure out 1 cup. If making homemade croutons, cube stale bread, toss with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and bake until golden brown.

  3. 3

    Grate Parmesan Cheese

    Using a cheese grater, grate fresh Parmesan cheese until you have about half a cup.

Making the Caesar Dressing

  1. 4

    Combine Dressing Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic clove, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 5

    Mix Until Smooth

    Whisk the ingredients together until the dressing is smooth and well combined. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as desired.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 6

    Combine Lettuce and Dressing

    In a large salad bowl, add the chopped romaine lettuce. Drizzle the creamy Caesar dressing over the lettuce and toss gently to coat evenly.

  2. 7

    Add Croutons and Parmesan

    Sprinkle the croutons and freshly grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the salad.
