Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- For the croutons: Put the olive oil and butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. When the butter is completely melted add the garlic and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Carefully swirl the pan to combine. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the garlic to infuse the oil mixture.
- Put the bread pieces on a baking sheet. Evenly pour the garlic mixture over the bread and toss to coat. Spread the bread in a single layer and bake until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir the bread halfway through cooking to ensure even browning. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with black pepper and Parmesan. Set aside to cool.
- For the salad: Soak the anchovies in a small bowl of water for 5 minutes. Rinse with cold water, drain and pat dry. Finely chop the anchovies and garlic, then use the side of your knife to mash them to a paste.
- Add the anchovy paste, egg yolk, Dijon mustard and lemon juice to a large bowl and whisk to combine. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the olive oil in a steady stream until emulsified. Stir in 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan. If needed, add water, 1 teaspoon at a time to thin the dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the lettuce and croutons to a large bowl and gently toss with the dressing until coated. Top with grated Parmesan and serve immediately.

CAESAR SALAD (THE ORIGINAL)
This is from Margaret Fultons revised 1968 cookbook (a Christmas present from the DD - my original is rather dog eared and stained) in which she states "This is the authentic recipe made for me by the Cardini family in Mexico, the creataors of the caesar salad. Particular care was taken to lay the tender, elongated cos leaves all in the one direction." Times are estimated.

CLASSIC RESTAURANT CAESAR SALAD
I used to work at a very fancy restaurant while I was in college. The best part of the job was making table side salads, entrees, and dessert. This was the best Caesar salad I have ever had! If having trouble getting the anchovy to mash, add a couple of croutons. They provide sort of an anti-skid surface, and the hard edges of the croutons cut into the anchovy.

CHICKEN BACON RANCH SALAD
I always seem to have leftover cooked chicken. This simple, tasty salad is a great use of your leftover chicken, either white meat, dark meat, or a combination! Romaine lettuce, cooked chicken, avocado, and cherry tomatoes combine with ranch dressing, and everything is topped off with crunchy bacon. Use purchased ranch salad dressing, or stir up one of the buttermilk dressing recipes on the site. Enjoy for a hearty lunch with some crackers, or for dinner, with a crusty bread. This recipe is proportioned for one person, but it's easy to double or triple for your needs.

Tips:
- For a classic Caesar salad, use romaine lettuce, croutons, Parmesan cheese, and a Caesar dressing made with mayonnaise, anchovies, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic, and black pepper. You can add other ingredients to your Caesar salad, such as grilled chicken, bacon, hard-boiled eggs, or avocado.
- To make a Caesar salad with fruit, choose fruits that are in season and that complement the flavors of the other ingredients in the salad. Some good options include strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, grapes, and pears.
- When adding fruit to your Caesar salad, be sure to cut it into small pieces so that it is easy to eat. You can also add a little bit of honey or maple syrup to the fruit to help balance out the acidity of the dressing.
- If you are using a store-bought Caesar dressing, be sure to taste it before adding it to your salad. Some store-bought dressings can be quite salty, so you may want to dilute it with a little bit of milk or water.
- To make your own Caesar dressing, simply whisk together mayonnaise, anchovies, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic, and black pepper. You can also add a little bit of grated Parmesan cheese to the dressing.
Conclusion:
Caesar salad is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or as a side dish. By adding fruit to your Caesar salad, you can create a refreshing and flavorful salad that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give Caesar salad with fruit a try.
