Time 1h25m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 head romaine lettuce
¾ cup extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon salt
¼ tablespoon ground mustard
1 clove crushed garlic
1 egg
1 lemon, juiced
freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 ½ cups garlic croutons
1 (2 ounce) can anchovy filets

Steps:

  • Clean lettuce thoroughly and wrap in paper towels to absorb moisture. Refrigerate until crisp, at least 1 hour or more.
  • In a bowl or jar combine oil, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, salt, mustard, garlic and lemon juice. Whisk until well blended.
  • Coddle egg by heating 3 cups of water to boiling. Drop in egg (still in shell) and let stand for 1 minute. Remove egg from water and let cool. Once cooled crack open and whisk egg into dressing. Whisk until thoroughly blended.
  • Mash desired amount of anchovies and whisk them into the dressing. If desired set aside a few for garnish.
  • To assemble, place torn lettuce leaves in a large bowl. Pour dressing over the top and toss lightly. Add the grated cheese, garlic croutons and freshly ground pepper, toss. Serve immediately!

This recipe is a great base for a caesar salad. I like to add some grilled chicken or shrimp for a more hearty meal.
