SMOKED OYSTER CAESAR
In this recipe, smoky canned oysters complement the rich egg yolks and provide flavor for oyster cracker croutons. Other canned fish are good Caesar salad material, providing they are packed in oil, which amps up their flavor almost to a condiment level of oomph.

Steps:
- In a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, or in a blender, pulse the egg yolks, lemon juice, Dijon, garlic, 2 teaspoons salt, and Worcestershire until thoroughly combined. With the machine running, add the vegetable oil very slowly to make an emulsified dressing.
- Drain the oysters from their oil, reserving 1 tablespoon of the oil for the croutons. Add the drained oysters to the dressing and pulse until smooth.
- Combine crackers, olive oil, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and black pepper with the reserved tablespoon of oyster oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, tossing often, until the crackers are toasty. Set aside to cool.
- Put a spoonful of the dressing directly onto each plate. Place a romaine heart half, face up, on the dressing, and drizzle with additional dressing. Top with croutons, cracked black pepper and cheese.
- Do ahead
- Dressing can be made up to 7 days ahead. Pour into a container and keep chilled.
