Salad Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lettuce

    Wash the romaine lettuce thoroughly under cold water. Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess water. Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Make the Caesar Dressing

    In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic cloves, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, anchovy paste, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until smooth and well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, add the prepared romaine lettuce pieces, croutons, and half of the Parmesan cheese. Pour the Caesar dressing over the salad.

  2. 4

    Toss the Salad

    Gently toss the ingredients together until the lettuce is evenly coated with the dressing. Be careful not to crush the croutons.

  3. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual bowls. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top. Serve immediately.
