THE BEST CAESAR SALAD
It should not come as a surprise that the best Caesar salad is also the most traditional version. That means it's time to bring out the anchovies and eggs -- and don't skimp on quality Parmesan cheese. We've even included garlicky homemade croutons to balance the tangy dressing.

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.

Steps:
- For the dressing: Place the anchovies into a blender or food processor. Throw in the Dijon mustard, vinegar, Worcestershire, garlic and lemon juice. Pulse the processor or blend on low speed for several seconds. Scrape down the sides.
- With the food processor or blender on, drizzle the olive oil into the mixture in a small stream. Scrape down the sides. Add the Parmesan, salt and a generous grind of black pepper. Pulse the whole thing together and mix until thoroughly combined. Refrigerate the dressing for a few hours (it just gets better!) before using it on the salad.
- For the croutons: Slice the bread into thick slices and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Throw them onto a baking sheet.
- Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan or skillet over low heat.
- Crush-but don't chop-the garlic and add them to the oil. Use a spoon to move the garlic around in the pan. After 3 to 5 minutes, turn off the heat and remove the garlic from the pan.
- Slowly drizzle the olive oil over the bread cubes. Mix together with your hands, and then sprinkle lightly with salt. Toss and cook in the pan until golden brown and crisp. (Add a little butter for more flavor!)
- For the salad: Wash and dry the hearts of romaine lettuce. Leave them whole. Use a vegetable peeler and shave off large, thin slices of Parmesan.
- Drizzle about half of the dressing over the top of the hearts. Throw in a good handful of the Parmesan shavings. Give it a good initial toss, just so you can evaluate how much more dressing you need.
- Add more dressing and Parmesan to taste. Add the cooled croutons. Toss gently.
CAESAR SALAD SAUCE
I was hosting a baby shower one day, and one of the guests offered to bring a caesar salad. She forgot to bring the salad dressing! I didn't have any of the bottled stuff so I threw this together. I don't put any egg in the sauce itself, but I serve the salad with bacon bits and hard boiled, chopped up eggs on top. I also HATE anchovies. So you won't find any in here. If you like them, you will have to figure out on your own how much paste to use!

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients together.
- I usually mix it in a jar and shake it until everything is blended. If you can let the dressing sit for at least 30 minutes, the flavours will blend much better.
- Can be refrigerated for 2-3 days.

CAESAR SALAD DRESSING
This clone could pass for the actual Outback Steakhouse Caesar salad dressing. I was able to get a recipe from the Outback's head chef, but it was very ambiguous with some of the primary ingredients, but after searching and finding a few copycat recipes that weren't quite right, I was able to tweak it and I believe it to be identical to the real deal. I've blind taste tested it, and no one has been able to distinguish any difference. Now we can all enjoy that wonderful garlicky salad w/o having to spend a fortune and drive across town. Recipe yields about a quart, and being made with unpasteurized eggs, doesn't keep more than a few days. Egg beaters are pasteurized and may be substituted, or you can just eat more Caesar salad.

CAESAR PASTA SALAD
This is a mashup of two summertime favorites: caesar salad and pasta salad. I'm not a big fan of pasta salad, for the most part, because the dressings don't deliver big enough flavor. What's good about this salad is that the dressing brings deep umami through the anchovy and soy sauce that's blended with the vinegar and olive oil. I also decided to wake up the whole dish with some charred romaine. It makes the dish memorable for your guests.

Steps:
- For the croutons: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a medium bowl, gently toss the bread cubes with the oil, salt and pepper. Spread the cubes in an even layer on a baking sheet. Bake until golden, turning once about halfway through, 12 to 15 minutes total. Toss with the Parmesan while still hot and set aside to let cool.
- For the caesar dressing: In a blender, combine the garlic, capers, anchovies, mustard, Parmesan, vinegar and Worcestershire and blend until smooth. Add the olive oil and blend to emulsify the dressing. Season with salt as needed.
- For the salad: Heat a grill over medium-high heat. Drizzle the romaine heart halves with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until lightly charred and softened, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Chop into bite-sized pieces.
- In a medium bowl, toss the pasta with 1 tablespoon oil and salt and pepper to taste. Add the romaine and dressing to taste and toss to coat.
- In a large bowl, toss the Bibb lettuce with the lemon juice, remaining tablespoon oil, salt and pepper to taste and the basil. Add the croutons and gently combine. Add the pasta and romaine salad and Parmesan to the Bibb salad and gently toss together. Garnish with more cheese and serve.

AMERICAN KITCHEN CLASSIC CAESAR SALAD DRESSING
A Caesar salad is a salad of romaine lettuce and croutons dressed with a sauce and is often prepared tableside. The salad's creation is generally attributed to restaurateur Caesar Cardini, an Italian immigrant who operated restaurants in Tijuana, Mexico and San Diego, United States during the 1920's Prohibition era. This recipe has been modified to remove the raw egg that the original recipe used due to salmonella concerns.
