Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients

For The Salad

  • 2 heads romaine
  • 1 C breadcrumbs

Caesar Dressing

  • 2 anchovies or a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • 2 tbsp parmesan grated
  • 1/4 C olive oil
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp mayo optional, helps keep things emulsified, you could also use an egg yolk
  • 1 clove garlic
  • salt
  • pepper

Instructions

  • To make the dressing add your ingredients into a blender, or immersion blender safe container. Blend it. Taste to make sure its all good and adjust if needed. You can also mush everything together in a large bowl with a fork too. You just want a creamy dressing with no large chunks of anchovy or garlic.
  • Toast breadcrumbs in the oven, or even better toast them with some olive oil in a pan till crisp.
  • Split the romaine heads in half and give them a quick blot with a paper towel if there is any excess moisture. Give a small drizzle of oil on the cut surface, or even brush on a little bit of the dressing if you like. Get your pan screaming hot and grill the romain for 30 seconds or so. You want a little color, not a soggy sloppy mess.
  • Plate it all up and enjoy.
