caesarsalad

“This recipe has been in my family for years, incredibly rich, you will not be able to enjoy another caesar salad ever again, because nothing compares.  On another note, Caesar Salad originated in Mexico at the restaurant that bares it’s name”.

Mince 3 garlic cloves in processor.
Add majonnaise, anchovies, 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, lemon juice,
worcestershire sauce and mustard and process to blend.
Tranfer to a medium bowl, add salt and pepper.
Place lettuce in large bowl. Toss with enough dressing to coat.
Add remaining parmesan and croutons and toss gently to blend.
Divide between four plates and serve.

Notes : Don’t make this too early, or leave for too long, this salad wilts surprisingly fast, and will soon turn to a mushy mess.  My suggestion is to make this just before serving.
