This Caesar salad recipe offers a delightful twist on the classic, featuring a creamy homemade dressing and crunchy toppings.
Wash and dry the romaine and Boston lettuce, then tear them into bite-sized pieces.
Ensure the lettuce is completely dry to prevent the dressing from becoming diluted.
Combine the egg, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and anchovy fillets in a blender. Blend until smooth.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Place the lettuce in a large salad bowl.
Use a large enough bowl to toss the salad without spilling.
Drizzle the dressing over the lettuce and toss gently to coat.
Add the dressing gradually to avoid over-dressing the salad.
Top the salad with croutons and grated Parmesan cheese.
Sprinkle the cheese evenly for a consistent flavor.
Serve the salad immediately and enjoy.
Serve the salad chilled for a refreshing experience.
